Amusing (or dismaying) as they may be, no, don't bother.  :)  Thanks for
the offer though.

I have an idea of how to implement it fairly gracefully.  I need to
make sure it's technically viable before I'll say anything else broadly
publicly.  Need to look something up and do a little testing first, but it
-may- work.  If it does, it would require two very small and simple CALLed
subroutines, one each at the entry and exit point(s) of any processing you
wanted included, but it's doable.  The rest is external.  And I assume this
might even be easier for you to adopt than others, since you're a big
believer in a single exit point by design, rather than multiples.

If I manage to figure out it's possible, I can let you know if you want.
If it's possible the way I believe it is, I'll probably write it.
