I can't speak to the probability of success, but you could followup on 
your related February 5 post to WebApps [1] with a bug report [2] to add 
your proposed functionality. (If you need help creating that bug, please 
contact me off-list.)

FYI, I suspect most of the active contributors to the IDB spec 
(including implementers)  would not support adding this feature to v1 
but I don't see any harm in proposing it for v.next.
