 We need functional and fully trustable non-full clients or else we die.  

We do.  its called Electrum.

Huh, did you were here a couple days ago? All SPV wallets suffered from a high risk of non valid transactions due the blockchain split, and guess what, Electrum is a SPV wallet. Basically any wallet that wasn't an updated core wallet was under risk.

You:  We need non-full clients.
Me:  There are some.
You:  But they aren't full clients.

SPV wallets can't be fully trusted as seen 2 days ago.
