Multiple / per product Out of Stock messages

Something I have, that does not seem to have been mentioned elsewhere....maybe no-one wants this!

This is implemented in lat9's Products Options Stock Manager (POSM) for attributes and I extended it for non-attributed products.

We have many products that are ordered on demand and I think the plain message "Out of stock" kills customer interest stone dead/they look elsewhere, so I try and avoid/soften it.

I have different messages depending on our stock/ordering policy with different suppliers and specific products such as:

back in stock this week
out of stock temporarily
due back in stock DATE
supplied on demand (7-10 working days)

I also mention this in case others have it in mind, to draw attention to code already being available in POSM/not re-inventing the wheel.

Re: Multiple / per product Out of Stock messages

that would be such a great feature, more flexibility on an important and overlooked area of customer interface. I would love to have that.
