Hey thanks Troy, this sounds great. To get access to local user 
variables such as %UserProfile% and HKCU, we currently call a bunch of 
scripts from our login script. This will help us get more of our desktop 
management into wpkg rather than floating out in the login script. Beauty!

Update: I've just had word from another sysadmin that we're already 
having some success with using it.

Cheers,
Greg.
