this discussion got somehow sidetracked.

after a long time, franz has implemented it in 1.5svn (the development
version, not ready yet for broad use).

i -- and other people who have tried -- feel that the way it is
implemented is too cumbersome.

by asking on this list, i wanted to know, if the way i'm proposing is
better or if someone sees a need for the -- imo -- too granular
current implementation.

it's not about if, it's about how to do it!

the feature is already in 1.5 and it won't go away.

since the discussion didn't lead to any useful result, i plan to simply
prepare my patch and see if people like it afterwards.

have fun
