I'm with Schwab. I have seen this blackburn tuning bell C in person and agree with the rest of his points. Most of these things have all ready been done..
You are not supposed to use a stand because the brass is very soft and the weight of the trumpet will bend the bell.

"I would like to see a tuning bell horn with REAL braces where they are positioned on fixed bell horns. (I even know how I would build such an animal if anybody was interested)."

Whatcha got there Robin?

I have several EMO harmons, I think they're great. The mute stays in the bell and if it does fall out, which happens infrequently, it doesn't break your leg if the mute hits you.

I guess if having a stand for Monette's is important you should contact other owners and collectively pressure Dave to design one for you.

Certainly, it doesn't take a genius (or his cat) to realize that all you need is a device that can hold the horn by the valve block.
