   Any chance of this being extended to address the ultrabase issue? 

   Ultrabase-X2 has an ultrabay, but the problem is a whole other ball of
wax when the ultrabay itself goes away. 

   To date, over the last 4 years, I've not found a way to dock with the
ultrabase and have it work if it wasn't docked at boot time.
