Hi Byron -

I've also had good luck using the isner copy weights scripts,
they work quite well for say, buttons on a shirt, a piece of
stitching on a sleeve that's been modeled separately, or a
pocket on the chest that doesn't match the topology of
the shirt undreneath.  If it's not high resolution enough, you
may want to upres the geo you will be stealing weights from
before you perform the function but in fact this method works
well enough where if I've got a large amount of rigging to do
I've started building a separate one-piece model to do the
gross envelope weighting on (something which will smooth
nicely at the shoulders, hips, neck, etc) and then use that as
a starting point for everything else.

good luck

-T
