Duncan Jones commented on LANG-1065:
------------------------------------
bq. We have a pull request with tests. Evidently, that means someone else wants
this functionality too.
Perhaps the patch submitter desperately needs this functionality himself, but
perhaps he just enjoys creating patches and contributing to the community.
Either way, two users interested in a feature is not proof of a general need
amongst the Lang user base.
We have to go with our gut on this sort of decision. Mine still says this is
too specific and Lang would not benefit from its inclusion. But please feel
free to present further arguments explaining why this code would be useful to
more users. I think a real-life use-case would help us understand why you would
use it.
