I agree... Plus even if you manage to come up with something really innovative, I wonder how well it will work with existing props/clothes. If there are too many issues, then your mesh is gonna be just one more that is ignored and left to rot. There's a long line of such meshes that failed because of this dependence on legacy content.

I would say if interesting and realistic rigs are the goal, then stay with your native modeller and import pre-posed stuff into poser if you have to.
