I just ran a fused 12 volt line from the MH to the battery of the toad. Is that not a good idea? Certainly easy and simple.
Simple, easy and INADEQUATE !
You will never fully charge the "house" battery this way.
The 12 volt direct line is plenty for virtually all towing conditions.
IMO fully recharging a large trailer house battery while driving is a bit overrated. Solar or generator at camp or solar on the road is the better solution.
