I've only outlined a possible approach so far, and a considerable amount of work would be required to turn it into a proper proposal. Alas, I don't have the cycles I'd need to accomplish this in a week (or even a month for that matter). FWIW, I'm content that you've decided not to move forward with an alternative approach at this time; perhaps a future instantiation of the WG might choose to tackle it. I'm very glad the value in a generic solution was recognized. Mark.
