yes, I have considered writing a QEP. It is the important questions that you have raised which make me hesitate to write a QEP just yet. I intend to first experiment with different approaches and explore and test them well before I'd even suggest going down any specific path. Having said that, I am more than happy to hear about ideas on what should be tested in this context.
