The little bit of information I had before, I just tacked on to the end of your existing ticket.

I was going to put a bit of my spare time during this week into trying to replicate Roland's solution firstly on my home linux machine and then see if I could make that approach work on windows at work.

From my recollection last time I was trying Ken's solution and a few others like just defining a CRS and couldn't quite get there.

Let you know what eventuates.
