I concur with David's remarks; there are better ways to implement the desired results outlined in my tutorial. I will be updating the document with Dave's ideas to make the process more elegant/safe. The script David posted is great and will do the job quickly and easily.. So unless you're feeling like doing things manually (perhaps you'd like to understand how consolehelper works), it's probably saner to just run his neat script. So, I'll link to this script as well.
