I'll bet there's a way to do it in Rev (if you'll pardon the pun), script
limits and all.
In some ways it's a lot like the non-asynch mouse messages: for a while
there was a lot of talk that handlers dependent on polling mouse evebnts
were impossible to rewrite using mouseMove, but with a little help from
others on this list such handlers were rewritten and people moved forward
with their work.
While not likely to be a one-liner, my hunch is there's no project authored
in HC that can't be at least as useful authored in Rev.
