Ultralite frames, I LOVEEEEEE them.
I'm ready to come out and say it.
I think the CCM 86 frames are really cool. I try to threow them on every marker I design for some reason. I'm even contemplating how to make them fit on markers they weren't designed to fit on. It's a strange feeling.

Anything you guys want/need to put on every marker?

About the only thing I'm very strict on with my guns is having a good barrel kit for them. I hate having only one bore to work with.
Now that's a fun looking version of the Etha!
I am a huge fan of the old school dragon style double triggers and want to put them on all of the guns I design
on this topic, we need more single finger triggered electros.
especially if ramping stays the "playstyle-du-jour"
that's very true. i have guns that have the same frame, but i use different triggers in them, because of the feel. sometimes the balance and the feel of a gun is different from gun to gun. add in the hopper, ASA, tank and even the barrel and the same gun can have a totally different feel. me personally, i hate the UL because of the skinniness of the curve in. i feel that its way too thin and uncomfortable, making the gun feel unbalanced. but that's me. some people love them and that's fine.
so go with whatever you like and more power to you.
besides, with ramping, you don't even need a second finger on the trigger, it does make it superfluous.
That brings up an interesting point. Would gun control (by which I mean the proper use of the term - controlling your gun!) be better with single finger frames? You can wrap your hand more completely around a single finger frame. It's the biggest reason I like the DYE hinge frame over any of the other hinge frames out there for Cockers.
