Question Popup options/product.php on buy now instead of redirect to product page?

I have probably asked this quite a few times in the last 10 years of using X-Cart but no-one has ever come up with a definitive answer so I'm wondering if today will be my lucky day!

I really want to change the behaviour of the "redirect to product page for products with options"

I would like to have one of the following if possible

1) A modal/lightbox popup that displays the product.php when clicking buy now from the products list so a customer can select options and then add to cart from there

OR

2) More ideally, a popup with the options/add to to cart button in it when buy now is pressed from the products list. I honestly believe this should be the way options should be handled in the modern Xcart and still can't quite beleive we are still redirecting to a product page in version 4.6.1.

Anyone who can help me implement this would be my hero! I have four 4.5.x branch sites dying for this functionality and I am pretty sure there are other Xcarters who would mind something a bit more slick as well.

As an example Opencart have already got an extension that does this...

http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&extension_id=8649

and I think it's about time X-Cart had this too.
