Hi Simon,
Great idea! This is definitely the type of project we'd like to work
on--simple, powerful, and very feasible to do :)
I'll be sure to get this into the queue and unless anyone else takes a shot
at it first, I am sure we will have some people working on this project by
this fall.
Best,
Chris
