That, and the ejection pattern problems have never been satisfactorily adressed, and the balance of them feels...odd to me.
Fair enough, but something that works well can have a beauty all its own, no matter how butt-ugly it looks.

The only bull-pup I've handled was a Bushmaster pistol, and it indeed seemed very odd. That having been said, I would think there would be a lot of room to improve things.
One thing I was thinking would be cool as an operational concept if it could be made to work effectively would be a firearm which stripped rounds backward from a magazine located in front of the trigger group, shifted the rounds rearward through a secondary magazine. Rounds would eject out the top of the back, just behind the shooter's cheek.
