<div dir="ltr">Thanks Steven.

</span>I think you've succeeded in bringing the issue to people's attention :-)<br>
<br>
If you care about this enough to do the work (I don't, I expect this<br>
will be my last post on the topic), then I suggest you should:<br>
<br>
- contact Tim Mitchell and see if his offer of contributing the code<br>
still stands;<br>
<br>
- if so, and there are no conclusive objections on this list, then raise<br>
an issue on the bug tracker;<br>
<br>
- if not, then someone will have to fork Tim's code (assuming the<br>
licence allows it) or reimplement it without violating the licence;<br>
<br>
- somebody will have to make a Push Request on GitHub; that might be<br>
you, or it might be Tim;<br>
<br>
- Tim will need to sign a contributor agreement, since it's his code<br>
being used;<br>
<br>
- See the DevGuide for more details. (I don't remember the URL: unless<br>
someone else volunteers it, you can google for it.)<br>
<br>
And I think I've just hit the limit of how much I care about this issue.<br>
It would be nice to have, but I don't care enough to push it forward.<br>
<br>
Good luck.<br>
