I have to say I don't like the idea of the neoprene ones, I think they would be too hot in the cockpit requiring one to have them round the waist with all the disadvantages mentioned above.
I feel that it is a good idea to be comfortable in the cockpit where you are going to be (at least) 99.9999% of the time so you can think clearly and hopefully avoid getting wet at all.
My dry suit has neck and wrist seals and gloves in a pocket attached to the arm. It's uninsulated so it can be used in non-cold weather and suitable clothing can be worn underneath to suit the conditions.

I note this suit has 3 layers one can choose to suit what you are doing:
