Great list! Just ordered the Scarpa climbing shoes on your recommendation and am also on the hunt for wide-toebox friendly snowboarding shoes as well :) A common problem seems to be that a lot of these wide toebox shoes mean they are wide in the heel as they assume a bigger/fatter foot, and I have a very low volume foot with a narrow heel!
I hope the Scarpas work out for you! Seeing how there's so many new brands popping up making barefoot/wide toe box shoes for specialized purposes, I'd imagine there will be something for snowboarding eventually. The wide forefoot/narrow heel type foot does seem to be overlooked pretty frequently by the industry. It's much easier to find barefoot shoes with this shape, but even still, it's not always the case.
