I have given the driveshaft some thought, but I admit that I've never indulged in fooling around with that kind of stuff, so I don't know what the limitations are. One of the things that come to mind is a mechanism for steering the rear wheel(s) of the trailer, allowing it to articulate less in a turn. Also, the really sharp angles between the car and trailer happen only when maneuvering at low speeds, when the car is in EV mode and the driveshaft would not be spinning anyway.
