Now here is a curious thing. In my Syncro, the third switch position is
occupied by a "cutoff" switch (which kills power to the engine.) I don't
know
what the advantage of this is, or why it is there. It appears to be a
stock
item. I don't see the need for it, and would prefer to remove it and
replace
it with a fog light switch...

Mine has it too, but it was added by the PO as an anti-theft device.  I
don't think it was ever supplied by VW this way.  If it was, car theves
would know about it and it would be useless!
