What about switching to tantalums?  I can fit the EIA 3216
(1206-sized) parts in that slot, allowing a 10uF 16v tant instead of
the 22uf 16v (or 10uF 25v) ceramic.

Maybe I should find a spot on the back of the board for an electrolytic :-P

Or I could buy a handful of each part type and keep experimenting :-)
