I believe Morpheus ultrapeers only block leaf nodes from pongs. I'm not connecting to Morpheus ultrapeers at all (modified my limewire slightly) and I'm usually seeing about 1,000 - 2,000 hosts in my statistics window which is about the number of hosts I saw before the advent of Morpheus.

I don't think it's necessary for LimeWire leaf nodes to connect to Morpheus Ultrapeers at all. Why not make LimeWire leaf nodes strongly prefer LimeWire ultrapeers??
