I have tried to ping Scott privately on the email address linked to his name: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. The mail was undeliverable. At the risk of incurring my peers' censure, I will page him in the subject line of an email message. I do think this is an important enhancement request, gauged by the number of times people request it. However, I'm downgrading this JIRA to "major".

(No information about the status, hence should be un-assigned and maybe

fixed for the upcoming 10.2 release)

Not sure why it would be un-assigned, has anyone requested a status
update on it, I don't remember seeing anything? Maybe Scott is still
working on it.

As for Medium, I'm also not sure. This is a new feature, not a bug, I
can see an argument for not releasing while there is a critical bug, but
I can't see a case for holding a release because of a lack of a
"critcal" new feature. Goes to "critical" in whose opinion? If it's not
critical in the eyes of the release manager then it's not a release stopper.
