I just asked someone from the release team whether this would be a
useful feature for them and he denied it. So although this feature would
be relatively trivial to implement I will probably not do this since I
don't see any use case for it.

If you or anyboby else can imagine a use case for this (except usage by
the release team), please attach an explanation to this bug and remove
the wontfix tag.

Yes, that would be sufficient.
