If you transit to the Keiyo line by taking that long walk at Tokyo station, there will be no supplement and your JR pass will be good the entire way.

 Re: London's five-year plan
The Asakusa Toei line (line A) has through running to four western destinations, including Haneda airport, on the Keikyu railway, and two eastern destinations, one to Narita airport and the other to be extended to Narita airport, on the Keisei railway.
The Shonan Shinjuku line already has the destinations that you have mentioned, over 100 km from Shinjuku, and including also the shorter distance Saikyo line (Kawagoe to Rinkai line through service) it looks a complex enough operation already.
On the east side there is an obvious gap between Ueno (where the Joban line and a branch of the Shonan Shinjuku terminates) and Tokyo (where another branch of the Shonan Shinjuku line terminates).
