Web Object based menus & Prompt To Resume On Presentation Restart

Catch 22: "frustrating situation in which one is trapped by contradictory regulations or conditions"

I have multiple presentations deployed into Articulate On LIne Fronted by a menu presentation in a logical hierarchicy that are navigationally linked by Web Objects on hidden pages as Dave Moxon shows here http://daveperso.mediaenglishonline.com/2009/05/12/create-a-menu-for-multiple-presentations/   The trick is predicated on placing a web object on a page that is 'hidden' in the navigation (or the navigation view is turned turned off) Dave's little demo is predicated on a separate small menu presentation that only has one display page.  The technique works wonderfully

However: When the player template option "Prompt To Resume On Presentation Restart" is enabled (which is important to my learners; the presentations are long) the Resume Page is the hidden menu page!!!   The learner will fall into an infinite loop if they choose to resume where the left off - ping ponging between hidden web object navigation pages

Is there some way I can have both features by either excluding hidden pages from the Resume list or better yet having them go to the page they were when they clicked the menu button.

A work around I discovered is to instruct them to Bookmark a page. But it's a conscious effort to take that step

TIA
