it works that way now! Maybe I'm misunderstanding you. You just have to 
set 
quantize  and switchquant the same.

the main point of it is to give you an option to break out of quantization 
when you need to. Otherwise you just wait for the quantize to happen. Or, 
use the SwitchQuant settings of Confirm-cycle or Confirm-loop. Then after 
you press Undo to confirm it still waits for the quantize point.

you should be able to easily do it with LoopIV, is there something I 
missed?
