This is actually what I was originally after, but thought it would be even more complex to have a tool need to have the intelligence to omit certain non-default stuff, like interface IPs, ISIS net numbers, routerIDs, etc.  As a result, I opted to ask for what I thought would be the more readily available and reasonable alternative.
