Martin, Could you please demonstrate your sincerity by escalating the 'bug' to critical? It would demonstrate commitment to really having this in 2.10, rather than just 'looking at it'. I think you owe it to the developer to make that gesture at the very least. Good luck with all the work toward 2.8 now, the efforts of the dev team are much appreciated.
