Ah crumby!! We already solved this on master, but it cannot be backported to the 1.10 series without considerable pain. For some reason, the support for it has been removed from the 2.x series as well. I’ll try to resolve that issue and get the support reinstated there (probably not until 2.1).
Can you manage until then? I think the v2 RM’s are thinking Dec/Jan for 2.1.
