I have stumbled on the one, and on paper it sounds better then maltitol...

It looks about the same as sorbitol, malitol and all the rest to me. I believe it is used here in toothpaste and sugar free gum. There is no reason why you shouldn't use it. I've made first class jam (American jelly) with sorbitol - but like all sugar alcohols, 25g a day is the maximum before you are rushing to the loo everey 5 minutes.
