I'll raise my hand here. I've been keenly interested in this for a while, since it will make my UDF work much simpler. I'm also getting my feet wet in CAM, and I have the two CAM gurus nearby if things get too hairy. I fully indend for this to be a cooperative effort with Thomas; I'm mainly raising my hand to take the abuse that will no doubt happen once in a while.
