Thanks for prodding. I still think it's a useful feature. However I
don't think I'll have to time to get it done on the current commitfest.
I suggest to let it sit in the commitfest to see if somebody else will

author and reviewers.
I may have time to become familiar or at least semi-comfortable with all
that weird math in it by then.
