Have you ever seen one of those slanted exterior storm cellar doors? I have been thinking of making a slanted cover like yours, but with a seam up the middle of the top, so that a right and left "door" could be opened up for large loads and they would act like stake bed sides, containing the load. they would be super fast to raise and lower, and also have smoother flow than stacks of boxes or something. The trick would be to make them light enough to flip up, but strong enough to act like stake bed sides in the up position.
