This will be an interesting post to follow. I agree that the master cylinder will need to be upgraded, as a drum brake master cylinder cannot provide enough volume of fluid to operate the disc brake calipers without excessive pedal travel. You would also get the safety upgrade of a split braking system
This would be the ideal time to install front discs as well, using the master cylinder, power booster and proportioning valve from the Explorer. Without providing some form of power assist, pedal pressure required will be higher than with the original system, as disc brakes require higher pressure along with the higher volume of fluid.
