I'm making a midcentury style desk for my wife and she'd like the edge rounding to be "eased" - so that the edges aren't half circles, but slightly more elliptical (with a very slight edge between the top and bottom rounding.

Here's an example of the rounding she'd like:

Can someone recommend a bit (or technique) to replicate that look?

That's perfect, thank you!

On a related note, many of the midcentury tops have a bit of curve to their thickness as well - sort of a surfboard look. I'm not planning it for this desk, but recommendations on how to manage that consistently?

I've never used yonico before (usually freud), but since this is likely to be a low-use bit for me (a desk now and likely a coffee table soon), it's hard to argue with the price.
