In seven years working in GeoServer I've hardly ever seen a deliberate
choice not to implement something.
But I've seen countless things that we would have liked to add, and that we
did not have the resources (developer spare time,
or funding to use working hours) to do.

This is one of them. The source code is there, if you want to implement it
yourself and donate the changes
back I can show you where they would have to be implemented. And the home
page has a link to commercial
support, with companies that would implement this for you, under the
provisioning of adequate funding for it.

Cheers
Andrea
