Slightly different approaches to the same issue I think.

That's a lot of extra complexity for not much gain.

Agree, not worth it. I have learnt the complexity lesson several times but 
find I have to be reminded regularly... Besides, there is a work around, if 
SLE times are a problem then refactor the skins/templates to minimise time 
consuming SLE calls. Also, only run the reports when needed, this was the 
impetus behind developing CRON like report controls, that way I could run 
the time consuming report/template/SLE once only at the end/start of the 
day.
