All Roads lead to Rome?

Some reckon it could herald a change as dramatic as the Reformation five centuries ago. Even those less excited claim it has significantly damaged both the Anglican Communion and the Archbishop of Canterbury.
In "All Things Considered" this week (Sunday 1 November, 8.30am, repeated Wednesday 4 November, 6.30pm), Roy Jenkins and guests look at Pope Benedict's decision to open the door to disaffected Anglicans.
His proposal for what would effectively be a church within a church has caused fury and delight, expressed at more or less equal volume. What will it all come to? What are the implications for parishes across the country? And how simple will it be for Anglican priests who are now ready to buy a one-way ticket to Rome?
