Ah!  I hadn't spotted the way TM handles missing files - all my remote 
refs have been to folders.  So a good workaround for the moment is to 
manually create the remote directory tree as a collection of Groups, 
and then drop the files into those groups.  Works perfectly - you can 
re-attach the remote volume after launching TM, and it promptly 
reinstates the missing files.

Good stuff - many thanks!
