I love the last two edited scenes posted here. I agree the video transition could be smoother (maybe slowing down the final shot of “I will tighter your restraints” could do the trick ?) but even without being perfect they decrease some plot issues. It’s worth the effort I think ! (take your time to polish it guys, no hurry to release it before TLJ)
edit: I would even suggest to remove the “And I will drop my weapon” which is out of place in the dramatic flow of the movie at this point (TFA is often too “bad comedy-oriented”, decreasing this aspect could be the work of another edit though).
