Using a background process is certainly possible (though I'd prefer an elisp script, as I mentioned here before), but it's not likely that I'll have the time for that. If anyone wants to try, I should be able to offer helpul guidance because that is what I use on Paradox (it's not trivial to transfer to package.el because Paradox uses the `async' package and it's a little hacky).
