Midhat,

thanks for this...
but before going too far with your work, maybe it's a good idea if you
have a look at the way I've implemented it in standard svn... if it's
what you need you will not need to maintain custom code; if it's not
exactly what you need, we can integrate the existing code in svn; but
please, have a look at what (and how) is implemented
(manufacturing->bill of materials->bom simulation)

Thanks,

Jacopo
