Hi Daniil, Thanks for the patch.
> main idea of this patch (for REL_17_STABLE) Your patch should target the `master` branch. Also please add a corresponding entry to the nearest open commitfest [1]. > In my opinion, this will be useful primarily to simplify testing, since at > the moment you have to create segments manually (as in this article). In this case you should add a test or two that demonstrate this. As separate commits perhaps. If you could also demonstrate that these tests improve code coverage for instance that would be great.
