No, too late for next ISO. We have to concentrate on bug fixes and
getting the new ISO out ASAP. No new features right now IMHO.

I agree, but it need some work:

- How to enable it (opt-in, opt-out ? In the console of the initial
configuration ?)
- In any case, users *must* clearly be made aware of this, especially if
it's opt-in
- Clear documentation of what's being gathered, and how to disable it
after the initial setup
- Are there legal issues which might apply to some countries ?
- Storing the data itself is the easy part (but requires more work than
the provided PHP script: there's no input validation, we need to ensure
no SQL injections are possible, the schema is sub-optimal, for example,
we need to add indexes and store dates as real date time types, not var
char etc...).
- The hard part is what to do with this data. Should it be made publicly
available, are there some tools or must we write something from scratch,
if we want a map, how to generate it etc...
