Sometimewoodworker,
I see on your wish list "WoodRat".
that is a fun tool to work with after you figure how to use it. I don't get into my shop as often as I wood like and so i have to go to the handbook nearly every time i try to do DT's. Other joints aren't so tricky, but the dust problem sort of takes away some f the fun.  I think some improvements have been made.

I have watched, and talked with the man who developed RouterBoss, very much like the WR, but seems to have better dust collection.
Tinker

Humm yes he did develop the RouterBoss, after being the NA supplier of WoodRat's for a number of years. So copied the WoodRat then modified would be a better description.

And yes it does something's better, something's worse, and others just a little different.

At the moment I'm about 2,500 miles closer to my shop with a couple of days and 500 miles before I start getting my "wood fix".

FWIW There is torrential rain in Bangkok at the moment.
