In the case of the Belew model; yes. I think Fly bodies of "normal" thickness will allow the bridges be lowered the additional amount to compensate for the slightly taller RMC saddle elements during setup.

That's another cool idea. It really comes down to what room you're left with after fitting everything else.

Though I had thought if it years before, credit will always be due to @Augustonian for encouraging me to make one without having figured out how to reproduce the end-of-travel detent in a way convenient to other modders. Though not ideal, it works well enough.

This reminds me: there are some nice detent switch pots on reverb that may fit the bill on future projects.
