This is the second serious effort within not very many months.[*]  And
folks have regularly suggested additions constantly for maybe 20 years.
 These are consistently reasonable suggestions, but that's not the same
as saying that the community feels need of the enhancement.

So I'd rather make it easy to define the addition and link it into the
base and then let the market decide whether it's worth using.
