I'd love to try a new SRAM Force short(er) cage derailleur with their flat bar shifter. It's an 11spd setup with a clutch, a barrel adjuster on the derailleur, and they make multiple cage lengths. I really think it could be the mountain bike drivetrain a lot of folks are looking for.
I haven't tried one of the new Shimano clutch road derailleurs. I do anticipate a new Saint groupset this year (next year?) that will include a short cage derailleur. I imagine it will stay 11spd.
