Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the idea, it does sound useful in certain situations. I
would appreciated it if you could file an enhancement request for it
on bugzilla [1], as emails on the mailing-list tend to be forgotten
about after a while.

That's not to say that someone is guaranteed to look at it if it's on
bugzilla - we're mostly volunteers after all - but it stands a much
better chance. And of course we always accept patches if you want to
code it yourself :)

Cheers,
Evan
