Thanks - I've heard this version with superglue or wax as well. I love the cleverness of it, and it was my original intent to use it, but I find that I adjust my saddle height and tilt too much right now while I'm out riding (new to road bike posture, and still working on it). Once I get comfortable and stop fiddling with my seat, it seems like it would work well, but I'm hoping my original suggestion would also work (and make the inconvenience of removing the BB myself) as a better solution for both the now and the then....
