I'm really sorry for having missed this. I must have marked the email as read
accidentally and only noticed it while cleaning up the backlog on Patchwork.

Given it's been six months, I'm not sure if this is something you're still
interested in working on. If so though, I'd be glad to have this feature. I do
think it should be configurable, at least initially, and I've left some other
comments in the patches themselves. In general though, good idea! Please let me
know if you have any questions/concerns.

Cheers,
Stephen
