Mike,

Just following on from Glens excellent comments.

It's an interesting problem - a bit of a deficiency in the current
trigger API that you can't really write a trigger that hooks into the
credentials in any way.  There'd be a few security concerns to
overcome....  Technically I think it'd be quite straightforward
(depending on the implementation chosen) - but with Tony, Glen and My
own current workloads it's only going to happen if someone else
contributes it or if a customer requests (and pays for) it.
