Hopefully there's also a way to get vermin/plant companions other than a handful of specific archetypes. Would be really nice if there was a trait that gave anyone with full access to the regular animal companion list the ability to take a verminous companion instead. Ditto for plants, although they might be strong enough to warrant a tax of a full feat instead? Guess it depends what they add. The dream would be just allowing anyone who can take an AC to get one of the two instead, but that seems too optimistic.
Fingers crossed with some finagling I can get my dream of a Butterfly/Moth riding wild child brawler going finally.
