I forgot to add: Assuming that you would like to have this in upstream,
some heads up for when it would be ideal for us if an upstream
maintainer was available for reviewing:
- We will evaluate the results of the survey and make design decisions
in December
- Patches will probably be ready in January

Cheers!
