Hack or not, it's been a useful feature when one is using IDScenter.  What,
if anything, will "-G" be replaced with???

However, I don't know if this will work with ACID.  

FYI, We're removing the -G (G is for Ghetto) in the future.  Its a horrid
hack that I slung together.  Don't count on that feature being there in the
future.
