I did intend to submit a patch; what I wanted to do was gain some comments about it before I made our Efika MX configuration use it, and then it moved itself to development hell. I will submit this as a series shortly (with the configuration update) if this patch has been dropped already, alternatively I will just submit the configuration update and remark that it requires this patch.
