Adding Ceon URI input to Easy Populate imports?

I am wondering if database fields for Ceon URI can be added so that Easy Populate can control CeonURI?

For instance, Easy Populate provides a field to make products active or inactive:
v_products_status = 0, 1, or 9

I know that there are methods for adding fields to Easy Pop. I would like to do this with Ceon URI. For instance (what I'd like to do):
v_ceonURI_status = 0 (ceonURI is off)
v_ceonURI_status = 1 (ceonURI is on, automatically assigns SEO url)
v_ceonURI_status = 9 (ceonURI is on, references a manually created url)

And, of course, if v_ceonURI_status = 9, then I would use a different field to add my own URL:
v_ceonURI_manualURL = TEXT FIELD (input would be something like this --- https://www.MYSTORE.com/product_key_words_here.html)

One extremely cool use for this is to prevent "down time" caused by SE reindexing since I am migrating a site to Zen from CRE. My CRE site uses an SEO url mod and has already achieved spectacular google ranking. Adding the above fields to Easy Pop would allow me to keep all the same old url's when I migrate!

Anyway, can this be done?

If so, what are the fields I can add to Easy Pop to control ceonURI?

Could this goal (controlling URLs with Easy Pop) be accomplished with Simple SEO in case I go that direction?

Re: Adding Ceon URI input to Easy Populate imports?

I'm not a programmer by any means..... BUT

It is feasible BECAUSE...

The URI mappings, like everything in EasyPopulate is based on data tables (which can be accessed through php MyAdmin.)

In fact the URI mappings are simply associated with a product ID.

So someone smarter than me, SHOULD be able to modify EasyPopulate to accommodate this.

FYI... Yes possible and is mostly done to handle population via export and import.
