Interesting 🙂. If you have red my previous mails to this list you
might have noticed that I am not an elisp guru. Stefan has
outlined two possible ways how this could be implemented in
Elisp, if you follow his advice I am sure you will have a working
solution you can present to us. I don't care how many lines of code
it will take.

idea itself is valid. That was the purpose why I wrote patch. I clearly
stated it is just a prototype of an idea in order to test the soundness of
the idea. It takes two minutes to patch 3 files and rebuild Emacs. if you
wish to play with it. It is not like it cost some enormous mount of money
or labour.
