Thanks for the information Mr. Field.

I believe I found a similar suggestion in the discussion list archives
regarding using a similar method with a product called Voltage.

I'm was hoping someone on the list might have already put something like
this into production.  I didn't see anything posted on the Wiki, so I
decided to post and hope for a response.
