Yeah, if I were clearer on how to do it myself I would have offered specifics. In this I am strictly acting as an "idea guy", and I recognize it may be a non-starter idea. But since I've been bumping my head against a higher-than-normal number of vendor-specific locally-implemented SPs recently, it's a particular pain point for me.
