Not yet. Turba's API is currently, well, messy. I need to clean it up in order
to implement syncing, so I'm planning on looking at it soon. Hopefully that'll
make it a lot easier to do stuff like what you describe. So, I'd suggest
following Turba commits for a little bit, and revisiting this once 
things are a
bit cleaned up.

Or, help/suggestions would be great. :)
