This was something that came up at OEDEM. There are several layers with
several attempts at getting this right, most have some issues.

Whilst we've been pulling things out of core, we also need to consider
things that perhaps should get added. Having this in core would
certainly address a number of issues (but is also potentially a
maintenance burden).

We did agree there that we'd consider this. Obviously input from people
not there is welcome though and this does need discussion. I'm leaning
moderately in favour of adding it as things stand.

Cheers,

Richard
