Thanks for the list. I was aware of VTMFX, but in general it seems very difficult to find hybrid funds that use munis as their bond sleeve.
From the list I discovered that AllanceBernstein has a whole family of these funds - ACIYX (40/60 stock/bond), AGIYX (50/50) - the fund mentioned in the list, and ATWYX (73% equity, rest "diversifiers" - a world fund). I've inferred the target allocations from their current holdings, except for the last, which comes from the prospectus.
Not recommending any of these - just hadn't heard of them before. Tickers are for the Advisor (noload/lowest ER) share class of these funds.

VTMFX and USBLX are two I follow.
Here's a list of ten (BBTEX seems impressive from this list, but no muni exposure):
