Caramel Albinos have a distinct hypo quality. they look different. I am also a fan of the ultramel/Crider lines. they are beautiful and when combined with Caramels they are amazing! Caramels need to be selectively outbred. they are worth it in my opinion. but what do I know?
Along with the toffee, paragon, and candy morphs. Could be all, could be some, could be none, just have to wait and see. I'm with you on the selective breeding, I'll probably be working the caramels into my own collection at some point. As far as the kinking goes, how successful have you been with avoiding them? I know there's quite a few people out there who feel it's something that's inherent with the caramel gene itself, similar to spiders and the wobbling. I know I've also heard it mentioned that incubating them at lower temperatures or lower humidity helps lower the kink rate.
