I guess my perception of how a bike should fit is off. I've been messing with the saddle lately and it is at midpoint right now.
I'm similar to you, as I mentioned above. In this case I'd look for a different frame, one that has a longer top tube for a given seat tube (or effective seat tube if it's a compact geometry frame). This would mean getting a different bike, realistically speaking.
