Couple of X-Y questions

Until I can afford an M-S array or a Telinga, mostly I'm working with my 
previously mentioned pair of CM-300s.  X-Y is what I know, so that's what 
I'm doing for now.

1) Are there any references to windscreens to cover an X-Y setup?  most of 
the zeppelins and fuzzies I'm seeing look like they're designed for either 
a M-S or shotgun arrangement, i.e. tubular.  I'm imagining a triangular 
"zeppelin" for an X-Y, but perhaps there's another approach?

2) Any suggestions for what else I can do with 2 mics?  I was thinking of 
possibly piggybacking an omni and  cardioid-capsuled mic for a sort of 
pseudo M-S - and trying different distances between the two capsules - any 
theoretical comments on this idea?
