[mv] Forcing the shipping type based on product

["Reuven M. Lerner" <reuven@lerner.co.il>]

One of my clients seems to delight in having a complicated shipping
system.  Usually, the shipping cost depends on the number of products
being sent out -- for example, it might cost $9 for the first item,
and $2 for each additional item.  If the user chooses "Express Mail,"
then those numbers go up by a bit, to something like $12 for the first
item and $3 for each additional item.

For this, we're using MiniVend's "quantity" shipping algorithm.  (In
the case of the continental United States, where shipping is free for
orders over $100, we're using the "price" algorithm instead.)

The thing is, some items can *only* be shipped by Express Mail, rather
than by regular mail.  Is there any way to tell MiniVend this,
basically saying, "If the user orders any of items X, Y, or Z, then
Express Mail is the only delivery allowed method"?  I've been through
the documentation several times, and can't see an obvious way to do
this.

By the way, we're still using MiniVend 3.14-5.

Thanks for any and all suggestions!
