Yes. It is already implemented for the next release, and being tested.

Now you will ask when the next release will be .... To save you doing
that, here's the answer:

    I wasn't previously intending to put out a release for some months, 
    but since there are several new things that I've implemented that 
    people seem to want yesterday, and a few bugs fixed, I guess I should 
    start trying to pull one together in a couple of weeks time, which means 
    it may make it before Christmas, with luck. This means, of course, that 
    those things I have not done won't be in it...
