Why has no one tried to fabricate a new hatch?

I keep seeing all the problems with the original hatch, and honestly when you look at most of the newer pickup shells it seems like maybe either a full glass or steel or aluminum framed with surface mounted glass would look great on one of these trucks, and I wouldn't think it would be difficult to surface mount the side glass either giving the whole top an updated look. I mean all 3 panes are flat glass, this is all something just about any glass shop can cut, or for that matter be cut on a waterjet, including mounting holes for the hinges and latch.

Thoughts?
