One final part of that "dream" (wish list), would be incorporating 
metering into this, where we have a charge controller-inverter-state of 
charge amp hour meter.

It is usually difficult to get the amp hour meter and charge controller 
to agree on SOC. If they worked together the winter problems of the 
meter saying one thing and the charge controller another could be 
eliminated. These are the final "bugs" that need to be worked out of 
battery based systems to make them work flawlessly.
