This is apparently a FAQ when it comes to C65 emulation, and as such, the developer of Hi65 has answered it in quite a few places already.
There aren't _that_ many -- few leaked, so it's not a big array of kit. The latest ROM would be preferable, and possibly fixing any outstanding bugs in it.
Another alternative is simply to emulate the Mega65.
This could be the chance for a rebirth for the machine and thus set the standard rather than trying to follow it.
Since it only ever got to prototype stages, the original C65s that are out there run a bewildering array of slightly buggy systems. All have quite different capabilities. Was it supposed to have a UI? We'll never know, and you won't get a unified answer from the ex-Commodore folks
