Yeah, I've been planning to work on this after completing the REPACK
project -- I have an old patch for this that I need to rebase and
complete. I suspect it has become substantially harder now that the
backend has moved forward 10 years. I suspect it's going to be quite
challenging.

Somebody else also tried to work on this a couple of years ago, but I
think they got discouraged or something (most likely because of us
moving the goalposts or whatever).
