it's nice that you think so.
now, let me tell you some news: it does not matter what you think.
what matters is what we think, the ones that write the code.

when we see a clean, well written diff that implements this and makes
sense, we might incorporate that.
maybe you could get one of us to code that if you fund him to do that
(let me tell you beforehands that you're looking at a 4 digit number
for sure).
endless whining here will make sure we'll never implement it unless we
have a reallyt urgent need. since we hadn't had that in the past, what,
4 years, it's kinda unlikely that changes.

I'll summarize again for you. pick one:

1) submit a diff
2) pay a developer to do it
3) get over it

note that "continue whining on the mailing lists and annoy developers
enough so that they eventually might unsubscribe" is not on the list.
