Skoda have solved the contradiction of hatchback v booted saloon on their recently launched Superb model. They have introduced a hinge (Fixed becomes flexible)so that the tailgate can also function as a boot lid (see article in Daily Telegraph motoring section 14/6/08 and www.telegraph.co.uk). Not quite as radical as the evolution of the aerospace control surfaces but still a nice example of solving a contradiction.
