Thanks, but the problem is that we have hundreds of sites managed by
developers of varying abilities ranging from excellent to incompetent moron
:)
If they were all using common scripts it wouldn't be as much of an issue,
but a lot of these guys are really "bright" and "program" their own scripts 

Justin Mason's blog has an interesting entry on the current issue:
