Thanks all for your answer.

Of course Maxime, wasn't meant to be mean or anything.

I'm actually willing to help, although a bit limited in time in the

What would be needed to help your pending patch @Mathieu ? Not sure if
my scheme is already good enough, but I can try and take a look.

Cheers,

Nicolas
