Do you imagine that there is a policy here to exclude what you're asking
for? On the contrary. Patches for such enhancements are welcome, I'm

helped already by offering thoughts about various things. There are lots
of ways to help. Contributing ideas or code for the kind of thing you're
asking for would be great.
