The point about WMI was regarding the creation of a custom attribute, you get two choices, neither of which was helpful. Stefan posted an answer for me on his blog, and I think I should be able to continue with my Big Idea. Thanks Daniele.

The discovery SHOULD target the "DB" class and discover the "TABLE" class contained therein, for example. This article from Steve should get you started on discovery based on SCRIPTs: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc983816.aspx If you can script it, you can discover it, usually. Hope that helps a bit.
