R. David Murray added the comment: It is a nice suggestion, but it is also probably a non-trivial change to the parser. If you want to try coming up with a patch we would consider it, but I suspect there is a limit to how much complexity we'd be willing to add to the parser code for this.
It would also be a backward incompatible change, so it could only go into a new release regardless. (On the other hand Benjamin might take a look at this and say "oh, that's easy" and make some magic happen.
