Are you saying this is something you actively want?
Or something that someone might conceivably want?
If the latter, then I suggest we not do it until someone presents a
reason that they need it. To me it seems like a complication that, in
practice, nobody would use.
If you actively want it, could you say why?
I'm having difficulty picturing the scenario in which it would be
useful.
