May I ask why?

I'll explain : there has been some discussion of adding support for
another wave format : possibly FST : to ghdl as an alternative to ghw
(currently ghdl/gtkwave only) and vcd (more widely used but not ideal
for VHDL).

I'm wondering if it might be time to bring that forward, but don't
expect it to happen instantly...
