design that tumbles in soft tissue quicker than the current
design. A 124 gr 9mm FMJ bullet is a good bit longer than
.45" I do believe.

A jacketed bullet with a wedge slice out of the lead about halfway down the bullet. On impact the bullet bends into a 'boomerang' shape. Manufacturing would be tricky, but manageable
Another approach would be to have the nose jacket collapse into a wedge shape. This would be easier to make.
Or maybe design a HP with cuts that will only allow half of the nose to expand. The asymmetry should result in a tumbling bullet.
Maybe one day we can look into that.
