My intention is to fix this in the 2.7 time-frame. It is certainly a
feature worth having, but I need to find the time to write it since it
would require some significant modifications to aisleriot. For example
there is no mechanism at the moment to high-light a card and the whole
click handling callback (which is non-trivial) would have to have a new
state inserted. It's not that difficult, but it does require a lot of
thought. If there is a volunteer out there, feel free to have a go.
