First of all, thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

Obviously, I do prefer to contribute to Emacs directly so that the maximum

So for that reason I will send my proposals directly to this mailing list.

Of course, your advice and opinions about my implementation proposals
continue to be very welcome.
