So it's not possible to do what I'm attempting within the existing software? I don't mind clunky, I just don't seem to be figure out how to do it...
Thanks again,

I do not think it is possible unless you go whole by hand... I will say if you cannot get away with sloppy mask+key+blur, do it on another software and import an alpha...
One think to keep in mind, is that I'm on a time clock for the client: even IF it is possible, for me spending 10+ minutes to do a precise matte (and repeat for the next 10 shots) is a waste of client money when another operator can make the rotoscoping on a less expensive room and give me the matte...
So i always try to gauge how much time it takes: is the fast and sloppy attempt does not work, off it goes somewhere else and we keep coloring.
I'f I'm by myself... well that is another pair of pants...
