It is a nice addition, I agree.
The question for all code that we add is who can maintain it. Code never
gets just added and then simply works and can stay. Any code that is added
needs to be maintained by someone, be that a committer, or by a commitment from
the contributor.
If we can find a maintainer, than I am find with adding this.
