Of course you should ask! You did, and I answered. But I did
not understand the intention of your question so I could not
explain in such a way that would be helpful to anyone. Greg's
reply was also useful since eventually you explained what you
had in mind. But we can do all this more efficiently I think...

I think the interface is the same - only the package name is
different (but I have not checked all the details).

Anyway, let me just say: Thank you for the question. :-)
