Wouldn't be much easy to try to get sets support approved for the next
eapi? (eapi6 I think). Once we get the usual problems, we can complain
but, who knows, maybe (as it's already implemented in a PM) it doesn't
take so long to get approved (or maybe I am being too optimistic :( )

Maybe a quick new eapi bump (5.1?) including this and other small
changes that are quick to implement could help :/

I wasn't aware of this issue at all, does it have a bug report tracking
it? (for knowing its status, why it is being ignored or bringing the
problem to the council if needed) Please take care that not all people
are aware of the PMS related issues :)

Thanks!
