I think using the ysfDimensions plugin would be the best way to go,
have you tried it with 1.4? with 1.2 it worked fine, I was able to
extend views, actions and configurations based of a dimensions, just
as the readme states.  It was robust, consistent and worked well.

Multiple sites in production all off the same 'app' with different
dimensions. Worked like a charm in 1.2. I would be keen to try it in
1.4.
