Given some other flurry on -www this week with patches, I want to write
in to say that this thread has not been forgotten. Based on various
discussions on-list, off-list, and at PGConf.EU, designing a patch
(likely patch set) for this will take some work and will most certainly
require review and discussion.

I went to make an initial attempt while at PGConf.EU and saw the design
scope would be a bit more complicated than one would think to ensure
it's clear for our users how to download the packages. I am hoping to
have something more concrete to share after the upcoming cumulative update.

Thanks,

Jonathan
