Is done already! Wornum's Pocket and Imperial grands - same scales,
different size and compass, ca. 1835-50. Henri Herz and a few others
tried similar designs - backposts run full length like with uprights (in
Herz' it looks like the back of the Fandrich upright). These seem all to
hinge along the spine to permit easy access to stringing...
