Adding feature almost no one uses is not reasonable, unless you are the one who adds, uses and maintains it. > But I'm not a programmer, so perhaps what I'm asking for is > "unreasonable" because it's too difficult programmatically?

What we are trying to do, is to make application simple to use with clean UI. That's why new features are questioned, whether they are actualy needed. -- Aurimas
