I am really interested in implementation of this feature as I was
surprised of ESyS productivity, which uses the same technology.
If I have enough time/resources I would try to do it.

Vaclav, if you have any thoughts/drafts on this topic I would
appreciate if you share it.

PS I will not be able to apply to this program.
