Ok, so it's probably something environmental keeping me from collecting the pollen from the currant parent. Interesting to see that there are a few of us with this particular goal in mind!
My thought is from a culinary surprise effect, for example what looks like a dish garnished with berries is actually garnished with tiny blue tomatoes.
If I do get one to take and get seeds I'm going to try to grow the F1 in my hydro setup under a HPS light this winter so I can start with an F2 population next season. If I do get seeds I'll be happy to share them with a few collaborators, all the more chances to get what I'm after.
