I invited you to formulate a patch if you thought it so easy; I said
nothing about accepting it :)  (We routinely review changes made by
new contributors; nothing goes in blindly from them.)

Either trust me that it's not as trivial as you think, or prove
otherwise by implementing it.  It's as simple as that.  All the
documentation you need is there.
