Official Hi Jeff, That sounds like something many users would appreciate. Bugzilla is the best way to submit your code. Open a new 'bug' in Bugzilla, prefix the summary line with [PATCH], and then attach your code. This will have to be a 2-step process: 1) open a bug, 2) attach code. That's just how Bugzilla works.
