Yeah, I mostly followed that thread. If such a feature was present,
it might well make sense to use it for this; however, I've got
enough trouble selling the SSI technology without making it
dependent on something else which was clearly quite controversial,
and which seemed to have some technical hurdles of its own left to
clear. :-/
At the point where there is an implementation which is accepted by
the community, I'll certainly take another look.
