Yes, I've always liked that idea. I've got this working for DragonFly, 
I'm hoping
to commit it within the next fews days. This is something I've found 
really nice
were I often find myself legally liable for information leakage, 
especially working
in the health care business. Now I'm not dealing with information but 
"Protected
Healthcare Information", at least under federal law. So the integrity 
of my systems
now has become important to protecting myself from prosecution.
