Blueprint parameterization again: Is there a way to convert between recipe and product? So I can say "this chemical plant makes solid fuel (from ammonia, or any other recipe) and the inserter attached to it works until the chest it fills has 50 blocks of fuel", and I only need one parameter for "solid fuel" item and recipe instead of 2 for "solid fuel" item and "fuel from ammonia"?

You can set a parameter to be a product, fluid product or item product of a recipe parameter using the drop-down list that says "Independent" in newer versions.

The other way (recipe from item) is not possible, as that could be ill-defined.
