Yey!  I think this is great news.  Can you please give an example of how one would 
cause a 'failed update statistic run' with your new design?

Also, please please please -  can you detail how one could SELECT the raw information 
updated by 'update statistics' so that it can be UPDATE on a 
second server?  We have 3 replications of the same database and it would be really 
nice to be able to cheat and copy update statistics results from 
server to server.
