And are が and を interchangeable with a verb in an adjective form, I know we've learned they are, but I guess I doubt it at times because it seems so odd to use を with an adjective.

～たいと思います is just the polite way to say you want something. Consider it idiomatic, if you want but it's an important form. You also could use that form for asking other people what they want. Funny thing is I haven't seen that covered in English books for learning Japanese... I just noticed it in my dealing online on lang-8. That's why it's so important to look at real Japanese
