Yes, there was discussion a couple of months back. Someone asked for the feature, and I said I'd release a test version that included the patch, but I never got around to it. Sorry about that. What I think I said at the time was that I'd tried the patch, and gave it up because its behavior was undocumented and I couldn't figure out how to make it work. Its operation seemed quite confusing to me. But I don't know if that was just me, and it was working as intended; or if it was some Cygwin-specific problem. So, I Promise to post a test version within the next day or two that includes the patch. Those of you who want to use it will be responsible for testing it, telling me whether you think it works, and if possible, providing some simple instructions for using it, that I can include in the README.Cygwin.
