Jim, I think you need to ask yourself a couple of questions: What would happen if you were to drop dead tomorrow?
Precisely. For that very reason I have transferred the few remaining sites I manage to someone younger who I exchanged Xara training for Yoga lessons. We both came out of this trade better for it.
Since about five years ago, I made all my clients responsible for their own domain name registration/renewal, and I made sure each client had the FTP access info for theirs sites. Now it will be a relief not having to remember each time I made changes what it was I had done to get to that place on the site. Or what was on those hidden layers I seem to have forgotten about.

understood. the benefit of that script would be if that was the primary section the client wanted to update. (add, change, delete autos) Then the client only uses the script dashboard to make changes and does not have to change the xara site.
