Hi Hermann,

could you elaborate a little bit more? I think a step-by-step description of 
how *you* envision it to work would be great as well as a very specific use 
case of what you are trying to do.

My initial reaction is: This really needs to be supported by the API. Once I 
have more details, I will either implement an API for this or give you a 
response on how to do it in your code.

Regards,
Stephan
