What about putting it into a different repository? Maybe the wiki would be appropriate? The problem is that, as I recall, we're removing everything from the darcs repo that we can. The goal is to boil it down to the core bits that make up darcs. I'm going to mark this as rejected, but that's really an invitation to send it again against a different repository. Perhaps we could get someone to volunteer to maintain a darcs-contribs repo full of community contributions like this. I'm sorry if this message sounds negative. We're just trying to focus the darcs.net repository. Thank you, Jason
