You know me, Monte: I love a good workaround if it gets people back to work quickly.
I didn't mean to imply that no effort should me made toward workarounds at all, just that when we look at the full range of properties that need to be adjusted, we're going to have to accept some significant limitations in scope, performance, or both until this is done in the engine.
So my point was merely the hope that any effort to address this without engine support would not be misconstrued as there being no need for engine support.
