You were correct, Malcom, Haier did prototype a version of this design shortly after Maytag was no more. IIRC it was around 2007-08. I believe there is a member in Phoenix that has one. The Haier version had a double lid; a clear, locking lid under the outer door on top of the cabinet.
I wonder if Haier were able to solve the small load issues that Maytag had. Virtually no turnover-rolling of small loads and almost a complete inability to spin the same small load.
