given. but do you have a consensus of the community that this feature is not worth including? i haven't even heard but from a few people saying that "it's not worth it because if it was, 'we're the ones to have thought about it'". computing science (may i call it a science??), is all about objectivity and examining the theories and evidence. it should be prepared re-examine everything when a new idea is introduced or challenged. so if it's a bad idea, explain to me exactly why; not go about human politics.
