Such functionality does not require a new option in core, which the
maintainers then have to care for (documentation, testing, ensuring
correctness through future changes, etc). For it to receive that level of
"support", I want more evidence of its value.
Meanwhile, it can easily be done as an external module using advice. This
should be done first anyway, by David, to test whether it's as useful as he
thinks it is. Otherwise, we're just debating an idea without facts. We don't
even know if this would address any of the performance issues raised by this
thread.
