Perhaps I can clarify, Juri:

The "work" I'm talking about is mostly not code.  It's testing and
checking for edge cases, searching for places where this should be
documented, writing that documentation, etc.  All this will take much
more effort than the code itself (though not a huge amount of effort
in absolute terms, of course).

Since you have not posted your patch, this mailing list has no way of
reviewing it.  However, there are very few truly 5-line patches to add
new functionality -- bugfixes, yes, but not user-visible new features.
