I appreciate the Jose work and am open to
different options and opinions.  But I don't
think this thread was the appropriate spot
and it did not help the OP at all.

 From the description so far, it sounds like
a completely different approach and not
compatible with the current (which is fine,
but it is his burden to convince us the
alternate approach is a better fit for
the project).
