This is a great job for item attributes - little bits of extra data that
you can attach (or not attach) to items in the order, either for
informational purposes, or to affect pricing, or both.
Unfortunately the current docs on the subject leave much to be desired. I
suggest you go to ftp.akopia.com and grab the tarball of the last MV4, then
read up on Pricing:Item Attributes in the docs which are contained in that
archive.
