Hi Andy,
I believe there was some discussion of this on the mailing list recently.
I don't know what the ultimate conclusion was, but I think the answer to
your final question ("is there a simple solution?") is "not really" or
maybe more optimistically "that depends on what you mean by simple."
A really quick search on Google gave me these threads:

Hopefully someone else can be more helpful.
Regards,
Brian
