They should be simple to be made by a hobbyist, using a lathe or 3D printer, ergonomic, and distinctive. Why not include such files (which will be eventually made by someone) in every Piececlopedia article? There's no need to create a design classic, just something that can be very simple, yet different and efficient. It should be compatible with a standard Staunton-like chess set.

I fully agree here. Of the designs I've seen, I think Jean-Louis's come the closest (certainly, mine don't fit with Staunton designs, or at least scant few do).
