It is tempting - anyone know how to do it?

yep, do it all the time. Actually the best way I have found it to use Cirlinca to create the DVD-A ISO image file and write that file to a folder on your Hard drive. Once complete, you can use any optical disc burning package to write the ISO image to a disc, the slower the write speed the better. Have over 400 DVD-A discs stored on a 2 TB HD as ISO images.
I used something (I forget what) to create a DVD-Audio compatible disc as an experiment; one of my cheapie DVD players actually recognized it (don't have an actual DVD-A player). Confusingly, there is also an unofficial "Audio DVD" format which is compatible with all DVD players. That might be a better choice in the long run. Essentially it is a video DVD with a still picture or blank screen; you may be able to do this in the guise of authoring a slide show. Or just use "Audio DVD Creator" (link below). Presumably those discs would play just fine on a DVD-A player, so you could try both formats.
As long as the folder structure is correct (AUDIO_TS AND VIDEO_TS) most any DVD burning software (ImgBurn perhaps) should let you burn the files to a DVD+/-R. If you want too know how to rip files from a DVD-Audio, you can use DVD-Fab, DiscJuggler, or DVD Audio Explorer. Feel free to Google 'em...

I own an ancient Squeezebox/Lavry that can't do 24bit/96KHZ so I take the hi-rez files and burn them to DVD-A via Cirlinca. It works great! I click on the upsampler and pretty much make everything 24bit/96KHZ. The final DVD-A disc is played on my Denon 3910 which sounds fantastic. Yes it is 'old school' having optical media, but it works for me.
Mainly I've been getting stuff from eClassical.com with the huge BIS catalog.
The way I look at it - is it is ALL physical media. An optical disc or a spinning hard drive (or even a Solid state drive!) is all a physical medium of some kind.
The strengths and weaknesses all boil down to how to do the transport. And ironically enough a DVD/CD player has a simpler transport than the typical computer setup.

I also use Cirlinca. But I mainly use it to create 96K/24bit songs to my external Terabit Hard Drives.
Yes! I started with a 24bit/96k of Nine Inch Nails The Slip that I got from their site- burned it using "Cirlinca DVD Audio Solo" (used the trial version- good for 5 discs), and it plays and sounds great on my trusty old Panasonic DVD A/V player!
Did the same with some sampler music (again the 24/96 stereo versions; they have every format there up to DSD for free download) from 2L's website. Again, great results...
