The system described in the Humanure Handbook is not a composting toilet, it is a bucket full of sawdust with a toilet seat, and a separate compost heap. I think making a complete system built into a toilet is not the best way to go but only comes from trying to directly reproduce a flush toilet (push a little lever and it's out of sight & out of mind). Invest the effort to empty the bucket daily. Let the white wigglers frolic way out back.
