The new cases have plenty of room in the headstock. I believe that Brian's case has an issue (more of a QC issue than a design issue) that is limited to this particular case, because I own quite a few Austin-made mandolin cases and none place the headstock angle this way. Calton has suffered the loss of it's production manager (he was killed in a car accident, I believe) and they are probably still reorg-ing a bit.
Either way, I am glad that you finally got an answer, Brian.
