Hehehe, those are all wonderful options! I think maybe I will just start out with a sewer grate as a headstone, and see what happens. Though, maybe it could be a dynamic sewer grate that changes what it's supposedly covering every few years. One problem I see, though, would be predicting what kind of utilities would be running underground in 100 years. I guess water is least likely to be wireless/pipeless by then, so we can always go for that.
Oh! I could build a tiny robot with a laser etcher that could come out of a side door in my headstone and change the engraving every once in a while. And then in the future after the earth is beyond repair it can fall in love with another robot from humanity's future and together they can... um... laser-etch my remains.
Up to this point I was all for cremation, but the options for messing with people in the future are looking better and better.
