Scheduling elements by linked Rooms

Hi there,
I'm trying to figure out if there is an out-of-the-box method for scheduling elements by linked rooms, e.g.
Having all my FF&E in an isolated model, whilst all my rooms reside in a seperate architectural model, if I tried to create a schedule in either model with the opposing model linked within (or indeed, in a third model, with these two linked within), I cannot get it to recognise and schedule the FF&E elements by the room they are in.
I've seen many plugins and dynamo scripts (e.g. this one) that claim to do it, but they're all based off of creating new shared parameters that mimic the standard room parameters (e.g. room name or number)... it then becomes a one-off process that manually populates the information, copying from the standard parameters to the mimic ones. The issue with this is it has to be repeated each time something is changed; if I wanted to move a table from one room to the next for example, I would have to run the manual process all over again for the schedule to recognise the new room location, so there is no "live"/dynamic change to the schedule.
Any solutions to this?
