Default Thrust line, Wing, and Stab

Hello everybody,

Now this is getting interesting...
Please refer to the other thread here, "Wing and Stabilizer Arrangement for Aerobatics". These are exactly the kinds of issues I'd like to explore here. Where are all the Pattern and IMAC designers? (the people who invented most of the things we fly) Seems like they don't visit this forum...?

Specifically, I'm searching for opinions on what is absolutely the most "neutral" arrangement for the best aerobatics in every axis. It could be that a "cruciform" arrangement is one answer, but I'd like to find the best combination for a relatively "conventional" aircraft.
