I fully agree that this would be desirable. However, I do not know the
status of getting those changes integrated into libvigraimpex upstream
or whether someone is working on that at all.

With this E-mail, I'm thus forwarding the issue to the upstream

send a copy to the Debian bug tracking system.

FTR: That diff is available at [0].
