Rob,
I like your thinking. Are you a Cisco guy too? I have been for too long :-)
I am still partial to hardware based solutions.

Great idea - wrong platform. Cisco specific
solutions aren't reachable for many.
Look at Linux (Raspberry Pi) solutions or powerful, affordable routers like MIkroTik and
common tunneling protocols like OpenVPN, L2TP, GRE, etc.
The big advantage of Cisco
DMVPN is that it can create a fully meshed tunnel network with endpoints
on dynamic addresses, with only one (or a few) central hubs on static addresses, fully
automatically.
It is like what you have with a JNOS or Linux route importing encap.txt all the time, but
without the hassle.
Other VPN solutions are usually hub-and-spoke, where all internode traffic goes through
the central hub.
It is like connecting to net-44 by tunneling everything to 169.228.66.251 instead of
loading a routing table.
