You may want to investigate the Schluder system (I believe that is how it's spelled), it's a German company who have come up with many solutions to solve the problems associated with these showers. Quality and well engineered ....remind you of anything?
Ps. I have seen kitchens with laminate flooring that has survived for some years but the owners have to be very careful....personally I wouldn't, and a bathroom...not a chance. Wood floors are different (assuming not pre-finished), you have the option of putting a clear epoxy over the finish. Much like a finish on a wood strip canoe.

It's Schlueter (Schlüter)
Schluter Systems - Homepage - Schluter-Systems and I agree it is the only way to go when making showers in a drywall environment.
