Yeah somehow I wasn't parsing what you expressed perfectly clearly. :-/ The play loop in those examples don't meet my criteria, but I...

That is exactly what I had in mind.

Ah, right. I had to go back to see what Micah had written, and realize I must have somehow mis-read it the first time. That all makes...
