Edit: Android Auto is cool, but it completely locks you out of your phone. You have to do everything through the headunit, so it's impossible to send a text or use any other app without using voice or unplugging your phone.

You can though.  On my S8 when you unlock the phone you have the option to go back to non-Android Auto mode by a button on the lock screen.  Then you hit the Android Auto button on your head unit when you're ready to go back.  You definitely don't have to unplug it.  I think you can also leave Android Auto mode directly from the head unit and then just jump back in again through it.

Hmm, I'll have to try this. The home button on the Pixel is weird some times since you have to do a gesture to get it appear, so maybe I just need to try harder.
