What's wrong with this in theory?:
Don't add extract to the boil at all. Cool the streeped grains and hopped water (and maybe 1/4 of the etxtract if you don't believe the reports that the hops don't actually need it) and then add it to, or add to it, the extract that you've mixed up with a little water separately. Heck, you could even pitch the yeast in the extract water and add the hop water later couldn't you?
I mean that seems so .... wrong .... but why not?
