are adamant against having to learn Morse Code for this purpose."
Some commercial repeaters (those in the Land Mobile Radio Service) and some governmental services use CW at 20 WPM to identify their repeaters/base stations and some even have it identifying mobiles because its very inexpensive. But I'll bet that 99% or their radio technicians can't read a word of CW even at 2-3 WPM.
