Some plugins regarding calling custom templates require that they be a part of the global set otherwise they just won't work. Images will have to be hotlinked most likely but it's what you have to work with.
It's pity that we have to go through all these just to show a different footer on certain pages and still not something perfect.
As you rightly said .. we have to live with it.
Maybe if can use a template condition like ...< if member.php || ucp.php || newreply.php then>
Do something
< else >
Do nothing
</if>
Maybe....... I donoo

PHP isn't allowed/parsed in templates for security reasons, though a system to allow it might be implemented in 2.0
Realistically though, if the user knows PHP then it shouldn't be too hard to them to write a simple plugin themselves which just alters the footer template.
Include a variable (perhaps $ad) in your footer template. In your plugin, assign a value to $ad based on the current page being displayed (use the global_start hook). Nice and simple.
