I think the Kevlar and Vectran ideas have been carried out about as far as the tire companies want to go, and while these materials do bring a light weight benefit they’re not as effective as what I’d like. I’m not a material science guy, but I (perhaps mistakenly) think there must be room to investigate super compliant, stretchable materials suitable for tire or tube use.

Have you looked at the Panaracer Flat Away tire liner?
Light as a feather, and tough.
I've got a set in my nephew's tires, but haven't used them myself, as my flats tend to be infrequent enough that it is good to be prepared, but I don't need much more than the quality new tires.
