So you mean like, not necessarily figure all of the manufacturer's best schemes ourselves, but rather, default to the original scheme but add special cases to a table which changes the security scheme for each new special case we discover?

As long as it's not a catch-22 (as long as we don't need to be paired already to read the MFR ID), then that sounds do-able. I'll make a note to try that.
