Thanks for your help, baldmountain!

I saw your group thread about this issue as well. Too bad this feature
doesn't work - it's very important to me as I'm sure to many others.

Following your reply, I'm going to stop working on this issue and try
to find a workaround, as I understand it is an inherent limitation of
the current SDK. If anyone has any updates on this issue - they will
be most welcomed!
