Paul, Your way sounds less complicated than the primitve way I was thinking. I was actually going to run a drive shaft to operate the winch like normal, then hook up the dump pump to the other end of the pto which is why it would run backwards if the pto was reversed. I may bag the whole driveshft idea and go hydralic, but then I'd have to buy all the components, I have driveshafts, and hydralic pumps on hand. Instictively I would think that a hydralic pump run backwards would either do nothing?? or blow out something? Maybe I go back to the drawing board!
