Tighter, dynamic coupling of Sources & Profiles to FindAGrave.com

I would like to see a tigher 'coupling' with FindAGrave.  This could take several forms:

1) Easier method to copy basic (public) information into either a new profile or to update an existing one (for existing profiles, could be handled much like a "conflict resolution" panel, so use can select values to keep/add).

2) Easier to cite FindAGrave memorial as a Source.  (Automating steps such as: picking up the URL for the direct memorial #, creating the Geni Source document with a default category of "Death" ... or better yet, a category of "FindAGrave" ... and preserving the date updated along with the URL (so that ... see #3).

3) If FindAGrave document is listed as a Source, then check the URL to see if the FindAGrave page has been updated since stored on Geni -- if so, provide both a visual indicator on the profile -- and, possibly even check ALL such links weekly and send notifications to Geni profile managers that there were updates to FindAGrave memorials for XX, YY, and ZZ.
