Universal parameterized LMO invariant for flat connections on 3-manifolds

Let WW be a 3-manifold, let Char(W)\mathrm{Char}(W) be its character variety, and let LChar(W)\mathcal{L}\in\mathrm{Char}(W) be a flat connection. Existence of a universal parameterized invariant. To each pair (W,L)(W,\mathcal{L}), there should exist a universal parameterized LMO invariant

Z^LMO(W;L).\hat{Z}_{\mathrm{LMO}}(W;\mathcal{L}).

This proposed refinement is intended to retain geometric data that the classical invariant may miss, particularly information associated with the Johnson cokernel. The supplied text does not specify a construction or establish existence.
