iMovie '09 Unable to import to network home - need real solution

We have a small educational network of just over 40 macs (20 of which are MacBooks, 20 iMacs) and 1 Xserve. Since the update to iMovie '09 no network users are able to make use of iMovie due to the "Can't Create Event" error (no permissions to write to /iMovie Events.localized) which is well documented.

The one solution I can find is well documented and quite easy to accomplish with ARD, but it involves creating a local folder on the root of each machine's hard drive to store iMovie events! This is unfortunately completely useless to us. The entire point of having network home folders in the first place is so that any student or staff member can work on any system.

Does anyone have a solution which actually works in this situation?

Many Macs, Mac OS X (10.6.6)
