Yes, AFAIK.

Please do.  IMHO, this is an important feature that needs motivated
individuals willing to sit down and code it.

The latter, I think.  But I don't think this is regarded as lower

even important features are not worked on.

I suggest to move the rest of this discussion to emacs-devel@gnu.org.

TIA
