It's definitely doable.

I've used a small 600:600 C.T. transformer (from good old radio
rash, err shack) for some test equipment. I needed an isolated 
power supply to connect to a circuit powered off the line (the
dangerous cap+zener combo, no isolation). I was only ever going
to need 3, current requirements were a few mA. bread board 
characterization showed performance was adequate for this 
application. Parts count is likely going to be higher than 
using the HIP4081.
