I am not. I have been wanting to propose this for integration in numpy
for a long while, but I really haven't found the time, and I will not any
time soon.

Before any patch can be written to push in numpy, it does need tests
and packaging, so what you are proposing to do is really great and very
helpful. Also, using it on many platform would help ironing out details.

Thanks for stepping up,
