This might sound slightly off-the-wall but I have to ask the question:

Is it possible to buy SAW filter chips without the package (probably YES)

Is it possible to bond them directly onto a PCB and then to glob-top them? 
And how would the globtop affect the performance of the device?  Or is a glob
really needed?  Anything special needed for the chip-attach to the board?

I would really appreciate any information members might have, as I am very
much out of my depth with this type of device!
