Requests for new features should be filed in Bugzilla: <https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org>. This ensures that the ideas don't get lost in mailing list archives and it ensures that eventually these bugs get looked at and (hopefully) implemented by willing developers. This particular feature request is no small task, but I think the idea definitely has merit.
