I think the idea is interesting and would be willing to see a patch come to the list. However, having said that, we typically evaluate patches, not proposals, so to see if it's actually accepted, you'd have to actually send a patch. We may find that while the idea is interesting, it turns out to be infeasible, or, for whatever reason, the patch is unsuitable. I know that this is different from how other projects typically work, where you typically pitch an idea first and then implement, but it's what we do here. -- brian m. carlson (he/him or they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA
