Yes, I see what you mean. A precision inductor with no
question of dielectric loss. 

However I think that our Q factor predictions are so poor
that the trouble of constructing such a thing would not be
worthwhile at the moment. Would be different if we were
chasing the last few percent accuracy, but then we would
have to figure out how to make such a coil self-supporting
while still preserving the current cylinder approximation.
