I’m it a fan of the idea, mostly because it seems like something that would be unstable and make the car handle poorly.
How about roof racks with a basket/cage, and either a waterproof cargo bag or hard plastic box? |

This is true. Just need to weigh up the risk. Some are more experienced with this than others.
I tow over 3T with my territory. I feel with my mods it isnt an issue,..

what I don't get is this is to incorporate something to assist in the expansion of the current boot space , but all I see are devises that hinder the loading of the boot to its potential especially if the vehicle its attached to is a sedan
but I suppose each to their own

Mike_nofx, the second statement is in regards to the weight legalities. Pretty sure comment was made that weight restrictions only apply when hooking up a trailer.

I'd need to modify a bootlid, but it's not like those are hard to find and it would be easier than making a box. Hell I could make a wagon conversion and call it something classy, like a shooting brake kit, if I wanted weather protection. Be damn ugly, but I *was* talking about having a box on the towbar...

I'd be inclined to pack more efficiently.
A Falcon can hold a fair amount of gear. |

Then there is this guy in South Carolina who couldn't order a "Continental Kit" for his 300c so he made his own.
