Nice to see more people wanting this. :)

I already have a patch[1] for this in the current commitfest which 
people think looks good other than that it lacks documentation, which I 
think is a fair complaint. It is basically just waiting for me (or 
someone else!) to find a bit of time to write documentation for it. Feel 
free to help out, but otherwise I plan to write documentation after 
PGConf.dev when my life is a bit less hectic.
