To be honest, we're not entirely sure we want to merge this without a really active user of it. The changes are not too complicated, but it's another fairly special use-case to support, and we would really like to have someone using it "for real" before we merge this. Also, Waldemar pointed out a number of small issues he encountered while testing this. There's not been activity on this topic for a year, so we're not sure how committed you are to pushing this and more importantly maintaining this. Could you provide more details on whether you're actually using this in a project/product? Or is anyone else using this, or going to use it?
