Can I make a category menu item link directly into a product detail page?

Let's say I have 2 categories + 1 individual product, that I want to treat as MAJOR PRODUCT item...

CATEGORY 1 ==> Category 1 page (actually products.tpl)
CATEGORY 2 ==> Category 2 page (actually products_t.tpl)
MAJORPRODUCT1 (disguised as a category) ==> I WANT THIS TO link right to product.tpl

Can this be done?

I own the WebsiteCM "multiple product and category templates bundle" (which is great)... but this function is outside the scope of that mod.

My goal is to make the products.tpl think it's product.tpl. Using the WebsiteCM tools, it's very easy to assign a new/modified tpl file to a specific category.

SO, let's say that I were to clone "products.tpl", call it "products-majorproduct1.tpl" -- and of course assign it to the "category" MAJOR PRODUCT1 -- what exactly can I do to this to make it behave as if it were a product detail page?

Is there a shortcut or hidden trick?

I have searched the forum for this - but nobody seems to have done this in public...

Your expertise is appreciated.

Thanks,
