I am not really satisfied with the patch as-is, and I have this question:

Of course, implementing the above has some problems:

* It is not a trivial change and it would take me a lot of time.
* Nobody has responded to the above **prose** description of the idea, so I am 
very reluctant to invest in the time to implement the idea since nobody may end 
up reviewing the actual **code** implementation, which of course will be less 
easy to understand than the above prosody.

I will not object if the existing patch is merged in, but I will not work on 
the above idea until somebody actually responds to it somehow.

Thanks
