Ahah, I may have the pad for that, Paul. (Although I now see that's not what your after?)

Have you also considered using an wire whose insulation breaks down under normal soldering heat? There are some fine ones suitable for the application you describe, certainly for logic circuits, if not power. I have done this with SOICxxx devices in the recent past.
