[mv] Interchange-4.5.5 -- Interpolating accessories

Hi All,

I am wondering if it is possible to have the tags [item-accessories ...] 
and [accessories ...] interpolate the modifier fields in the product database.

What I really would like to do is the following:

Put an usertag into e.g. the size field of the products database
This usertag will generate the comma separated option list (L=Large, 
XL=Extra Large, etc) to be used by the accessories tags.

The accessories tags won't interpolate any tags or code put into a product 
field as far as I understand (I have tried it). Hopefully I am wrong :)

It would be a really nice feature to have!  Not so much for the size and 
color, but for other modifiers with many different options. Or as an 
alternative hand the option list directly to the accessory tag like:
[item-accessories size optionlist*="[my option list]"]
[accessories code, attribute*, type*, field*, database*, name*, outboard*, 
myopionlist*]

Recap:
1 Have the accessories tags interpolate the modifier fields, or
2 Add a new argument (optionlist) to the accessories tags

Has anyone played with this?

Thanks!
