Thanks for the kind words Shalin. This is something that is in development as Bryan mentioned. It’s a great time to contribute ideas and suggestions, as well as get involved with contributing code if you’re interested. We always welcome input from the community, especially if you have a real world use case for this with specific requirements and scenarios. That will help us build something that doesn’t just check off features, but solves real problems.
