Jeff, Ah, I never would have thought of that. Thanks!

Our general recommendation is to provide an XSLT that transforms the maverick configuration file to add your extra views. Use the configTransform init param to the Maverick dispatcher: http://mav.sourceforge.net/maverick-manual.html#N100CB You can define your commands like this: <command name="blah" loginRequired="true"> ... </command> (or whatever designator you choose) and then you can have an XSLT that adds the extra views to any command so designated. I can provide a sample if you would like assistance.
