Drop Shipping Module

I would like to see a Drop Shipping feature added to version 1.5. My ideas for the feature include:

1. Adding a supplier table that includes:

   Supplier Name
   Address
   Phone
   Fax
   e-mail
   My Account Number

2. Adding a couple of lookup fields in the product record that wuld allow selection of a primary and secondary supplier.

3. Modify the module that checks product balance and marks an item out of stock so that it will not mark an item out of stock if either a checkbox in product table is checked (this field would need to be added) or the quantity in the product record set to say -999. I would prefer the checkbox.

4. Add an admin module that will let me select customers orders to process and output a seperate PDF purchase order for each supplier of products on the customers order that I can either fax or e-mail to supplier.

5. Purchase ordeer should have my info including account number, customer shipping info, and the list of suppliers product part numbers, short description, and quantity.

I'm sure I missed something, so feel free to add additional features.

Huge ideas, microscopic php coding skills. :D
