I have a set of pools I eject daily via 4.5 vault.  My problem is that the
operators who receive these reports and bundle the tapes into off-site boxes
need to know which tape is in which pool because they go in different boxes.
Unfortunately, 4.5's picking report doesn't show the pool as one of its
columns.  

This leads to two solutions:

- do a different vault session for each pool, identifying the pool in the
report name.  Unfortunately, that means vaulting takes forever because it's
five different sessions.

- hope that there is some hook in 4.5 that allows for custom reporting, or
some point where I can modify reports before they go out.

In 3.4's hideous vaulting, I modified bpvault.tld.eject to run a script
before it did the ejects...is there some place I could do something similar
in 4.5?
