What you are describing is an ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch).
If you install one and set up to favor the generator, if you turn on the generator, it will automatically switch to that (and only that) power source.
Yes, it is safer to unplug from shore power even with an ATS, and it sounds like that would not be too much of a chore.
