Sorry, I assumed you read the relevant publicly available thread that 
has messages you authored weaving through it:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.multimedia.puredata.devel/8611

That's from 2010.  For a patch you submitted in 2006.

We're currently in 2014.

That such a feature would take nearly a decade to get into the professed 
"core" (and still isn't included, in any form) is a symptom of an 
unhealthy development process.  An unhealthy development process keeps 
potential developers from participating and improving the software, 
which is a vicious cycle.
