I don't think that there's currently a way to do what you're looking for.  The 
act of publishing to the collector is tied to the internal state evaluation 
(if I'm reading the code right).

I don't think that anybody has tried to do what you're trying to do, or, at 
least, not in a large pool.

Sorry that I don't have a better answer...
