I cannot answer your question exactly, but this might help too:
-Although I don't know whether System 7 will support swap files on removables,
 I do know that Virtual (Virtual Memory Manager by Connectix) can do this
 already.
-A few days ago I read on the net that Apple promised to support Virtual
 as an alternative to its own VMM under System 7.
So what you want should be possible. I suggest you ask Connectix and Apple 
for details. :-)
