Answer:
These do exist and are available in many fireplace shops and home centers. I know they are legal for natural gas, but it is possible that LP is different due to the gas being heavier that air (i.e., it can pool on the floor level)
Check with your code official or LP supplier.
They are operated by a brass key in a flow valve.
