Generally-speaking I'd be in favour of such a change, and it would be a
welcome contribution. Though, the specifics probably need some work and
possibly a few revisions to arrive at the best outcome.
As for how to contribute it, if you don't have any specific questions
and/or requests for clarification at this point, please prepare and send
a patch to our bug tracker at address@hidden, so that it gets
assigned a bug number. We can then continue the discussion in the patch
thread itself, or here if needed, but not both.
