I don't think I would want anything that light.

A-Liners are fairly lightweight. I could only wish them to be large enough to contain a decent size bathroom, with a shower, and toilet. So they are to small for me to be comfortable. I like dry camping, away from any campground with facilities, and not considering a tree as my bathroom.
If I where to design trailers, I like the additional space of a slide out. Why not install them in the front and back? The trailer hitch area seems to be the designated propane tank location for travel trailers. Tanks can be located someplace else, and then the hitch area will be open, and a slide can be installed above that area. Small bed slides seem popular in the hybrid trailers, why not make a hard sided slide out bed in a trailer design, and have it slide 4' out of the back or front of the trailer? Why must all slides come out the side of the trailer?
Just some thoughts on how to design a trailer that is compact, for lightweight travel, but will expand when at the campground.
