Chances are if you're throwing the weapon you're not in melee range yet, so your not going to be swinging the other weapon. Yes throwing one weapon and swinging another would very difficult, even more than throwing two which is common in fantasy games (see Warcraft trolls). BG2 actually accounts for this by inflicting a -4 AC penalty on anyone using a missile weapon in melee.
