A firmware hack is unlikely until Canon releases a firmware update. Though I'd be quite interested if there were one.

I'm not aware of any way to circumvent the max/min shutter speeds. The only 'programmable' settings I know of are the C1 and C2 modes, where you can save specific shutter, aperture, etc., but those don't allow you to exceed the limits of the other modes.

Do you have a link to the post?
