DO NOT LOAD list for ADCs

About a year ago when the Versed/vecuronium issue was being discussed, one of the pie-in-the-sky ideas that was batted around was a DO NOT LOAD list for our ADCs. However at that time, it would be a manual list and not something that could be hardwired into ADC "brains". Now that it has been a year-ish, has anyone found anything like this that would not be a manual process?

We use Omnicell, and have restricted the addition of medications to machines to a core team. This obviously helps, but desire to go a bit further than human vigilance on this if possible.

Thoughts?
