Hello Mark, There is currently no implementation in CI which allows this. Having said that, it's something that we have pondered ourselves. It might just be high time to get that sorted out.
I have created a github issue[1] so we can talk about it. May I request that we move the discussion there? I am very keen to help get a solution together for you. Thanks for the contact!
