If you hate these kinds of replies then you could easily prevent them by proposing a possible plan of action for the community to take instead of a mail which sounds like "someone else take care of my idea"

For the record I think this is a worthwhile idea. Some community members have already begun making utilities to do this, so perhaps we should incorporate this work.
