Right, it is good to mention that I explicitly asked to wait community
response.

I keep updating it because I believe this is something useful.

Meanwhile adding this into repo means maintenance cost, so this should
not be merged without any usecase or interest from community.

Patch is waiting for an ACK or NAK from community.
