Suppose the auction starts
1D - 1M
3D
1M - 2D (GF)
2M - 3D
or
1M - 3D (invitational)
Play:
3H = either a stopper or extra length in the major.
3S = the other stopper.
We bid the stoppers naturally. For example, if M = hearts then 3H shows either a club stopper or heart length and 3S shows a spade stopper.
After 3H, partner can ask with 3S, after which we bid 3NT with the stopper and at the 4-level with extra length.
Thoughts?

I like it.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

Apart from possible wrongsiding issues I don't see any problems. What does 3NT mean over 3♥?

It means you want to play 3NT regardless.
