The roller is a huge designe improvement too, both for setting the
latch and pushing open.

Would like to see a heavier guage of material on the sides. The
Schweizer hooks WILL bend and/or jam with the just the right angle of
side load.

No experience with this release but I've noticed that some hook
installations don't release until most of the release handle motion
range is used up. Since this release has a longer arm then more
release handle motion will be required. I wonder if that will require
a redesigned release handle or perhaps just more careful attention to
cable adjustment.
