 Unfortunately a sensor on the front pulley is not practical.  The front pulley is a alloy twin grove with a very deep recess for the bolt.  I went to this setup so that one belt drives the water pump and the other drives the alternator.  That way I can tighten the belt for the alternator as tight as I want without putting to much pressure on the water pump bearing.  Also for short races I would drop the belt for the alternator to get a little more power.
