Feel free to open a feature request in bugzilla, but I don't think it's going
to happen. The patent "pact" isn't a license to use
And I can just about guarantee that it won't happen for 10.2, it's far too
late in the release cycle for new features of any kind
But only the PM/RM can speak authoritatively on this
