My guess (but it's no more than, well, call it an "educated guess") is
that it would be possible but not obvious, and probably low-priority.
I suggest adding this (if not already present) to the TODO list, so
that anyone interested and capable may try his/her hand at
implementing it. Edward Ned, if _you_ want to delve into the Vim
codebase and try to find out what to change, by all means go ahead:
Vim is open-source, and its codebase is nowhere as bulky as that of,
let's say, Firefox. ;-)

Best regards,
Tony.
