On this patch, beyond the fact that it's causing a crash in the
regression tests as evidenced by the CFbot, we seem to be waiting on the
input of the larger community on whether it's a desired feature or not.
We have Kyotaro's vote for it, but it would be good to get more.
I'm switching it as Needs Review, so that others chime in.
In the meantime, please do fix the code style: brace location and
whitespacing are not per style, as well as usage of //-comments.
Also please research and fix the crash.
Thanks
