Hi,
As mentionned in the bug report[1], I have actually implemented this feature
:) It needs some more testing but should eventually end up in next release
(I hope). If you are willing to test it, you can try the LS-469 branch of
the mercurial repository.

>> one. I will also mark the first one blocker.
