I had written up this comment some time ago but put it into rt as a comment instead of a reply. With this I'm resolving the ticket, if we need to do more you can re-open it or open a new ticket.
Here's the patch. It is in HEAD and will therefore go into the next feature (4.3.0a1 probably) but we currently don't plan to put it into 4.2.5 or 4.1-ESV-R6. We are still working on the roadmap for 4.3.0 so I'm not sure when we will release it. Shawn
