"Several other variants were considered but not built. The "Me-262 HG" 
featured 
wings with greater sweepback for high-speed performance and a "vee" or 
"butterfly" tail." 
 
All quite true, but these did not include a cockpit in the tail variant.  I am 
familiar with the Skoda and other projects that tried similar arrangements - 
nothing from Messerschmitt to suggest they were interested in this approach.
