It took a while to read your post, but I am glad I carried on to the end. A very good outline of the background and a clear suggestion of how we can progress on from here. I think that your proposal is one of the first I have seen that I think could be completely workable and one I feel I could wholeheartedly endorse. However let's see how others receive it.
I would also congratulate you on taking the kick in the teeth from EC UK with dignity and working to try to rebuild the bridges rather than becoming bitter and rejecting anything EC UK are trying to do as some others have understandably done.
