Dang, I should of thought of that since it makes perfect sense out of a seemingly simple, obvious issue, that for some unknown and mysterious reason, just never gets resolved.

OK, here's a prediction: Panavia writes back after a couple of weeks "the SAI people are reviewing it, and it looks promising." A few weeks later, "I still haven't heard, let me check back with them." A month or two after that, "Well I havent' updated this thread in a while, but the situation is more complicated than it originally appeared." That will be the last posting on the thread.

Bottom line: You will never have access to a quality manual, at a reasonable price, in your lifetime.
