I have some code for that part, that needs a coupe of rounds of final
hacking and polish. I've had many targets for it, but right now the target
is to be done before pgcon, so we can put it in play for the next set of
commitfests. It's not going to happen for *this* one, and we don't want to
distrupt the flow even more by making big changes to the tooling in the
middle of it.

That said, there is definitely a need :)
