And very appreciative I am too. While I concede it is doable now, and I 
could do this in Python as well, I do feel that a feature like this 
would have wider use than may be apparent on a first glance.
Furthermore, I think that the simplicity of implementing it makes it 
really a question of "why not" rather than "why".
