NIce addition Drew. One thought though. Having channels added into the header and footer area of the layout causes everyone to get them in their layout in the DB regardless of whether they can use them or not. I added a feature to DLM some time ago allowing such channels to be referenced in the theme stylesheet via their functional name rather than require that they be channels located in the user's layout. This makes use of the transient layout manager for instantiating them and using them during the user's session without adding bulk to their layout. Have you investigated use of that approach to alleviate adding more to the headers and footers?
