Hi!
It is possible. I started out from MN features list, then I will look
for the other way.
Pascal made a great point here. Wherever possible we want to rely on
stock code for better scalability. I'm very appreciative of Peter's
help thus far, and thanks to him for continuing to look at this
particular content need. At the same time, the relatively small
number of us working on Drupal should be a warning that we want to
stay as close to upstream Drupal as possible. (Which is the Fedora
way too, not coincidentally, and thus makes sense.)
