I've been annoyed by that in the past.  I have some vague memory of
proposing adding it and being shot down, on don't-remember-what grounds.
But I couldn't find any such discussion in a quick trawl of the archives,
so maybe I'm misremembering.  The only reasonable counter-argument I can
think of now is that it'd make the display Even Wider ... but \df+ long
since blew past any reasonable screen width.
