How to get remaining time for baton after setting timeOut property

Question

Hello,
Is it possible to get the remaining time for baton after setting timeOut, or do I have to maintain a separate Timer for that?
Been following this excellent tutorial here http://tv.adobe.com/watch/adc-presents/create-shared-forms-in-livecycle-collaboration-serv ice/

Thanks Nigel, before reading your reply, I came up with something like this, but it seems extending the Baton class is not enough, as I would need my own BatonProperty as well that uses this extended Baton class...
Also attempted to get some help here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7116814/actionscript3-lccs-how-to-access-property-paren t-class-protected-var/7116882#7116882
Could this be made into a feature request for Baton and BatonProperty, se we could easily get the remaining time please?   I guess I can wait for a future release.

               trace("TRACING START countDown....");
               if (_autoPutDownTimer.running) {
                    trace(_autoPutDownTimer.currentCount);
                    //sharedTimer.value = String(90 - _autoPutDownTimer.currentCount);
               trace("TRACING END....");
