For the record, this is a commonly-requested feature where people ask
"why doesn't it do this?" and the response is generally "I dunno, but
it shouldn't be hard to implement; why don't you try?" =)

Would be great to get this in once the feature freeze has melted.
What's the procedure for handling patches in this situation? Just ask
the author to re-submit after the release?
