Hi Bill, thanks for re-posting your intend to implement to this group.
Do you have an ETA on the design document, so I know when we can move forward with your feature? I have shared a new template for V8 design documents with you in order to make this step as smooth as possible. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
