Hello I am here - thanks for contacting me.

I was hoping to cover this as part of my F40 Change, but unfortunately I
haven't gotten to it, so the Change is now at risk of being deferred to F41.

Nevertheless I will see what I can do about this for F40: maybe a backport
can also be done for F39.

Next time you could also comment on the relevant bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1996301 - that would be
appreciated.

Thanks, Jens

PS Special thanks to Neal Gompa for pinging me in Matrix. 🙏
