That's the clean way to do it, and I would if I were in control of the
handshaking, but because Ctools is doing the handling of the link click
and the construction of the AJAX handshaking, I can't just package it up
and send it...I need to find the right 'box and forms' to get it to
accept, carry and deliver my package for me.

I don't use CTools, but how I normally do this is define in the module
a hook_menu item that is purely callback (i.e. 'type' =>
MENU_CALLBACK) and use that. Tabular data I push using a jQuery
$.ajax call and just serialize() the whole data HTML element. To pass
something back in the callback function (in module) just encode it
using json_encode and in jQuery $.ajax call have a success handler
that does something with it.
