Les,
if we assume that this is a real case, it appears to me that it is a rear
one. Thus, I don't see a good enough  reason standardizing something that
solves a rear case when there's already a standard-based solution that
addresses 80%, if not 90% of cases. Yes, it is interesting problem but, in
my opinion, not for an SDO.

Regards,
Greg
