Thank you Mike.
I had actually come to the same conclusion :(
I have gone ahead and written 2 new UserTags to support this.
1) read_zone which reads the zone files.
2) make_three to support read_zone.
I've modified the drop_ship_internal_lookup to build me a %zones hash that
can be passed to read_zone.
The thing works like a charm :)
Will supply code to list if interested.
