Yes, there is some connection. I haven't had a chance to go through
the previous discussions yet. Let me first go through all the past
discussions related to this and then reconsider the approach.

I am also glad to learn from this discussion that Greg, as mentioned
in his earlier response in this thread, is working on a solution to
this problem as well. We can wait for his solution to become available
and see how things progress from there.
