No, it's promptly ignored because it's just useless words that require
an implementation before it can be of any use to anyone.

I've been offering for several years now to mentor you through the
process of developing a prototype that is useful to FreeBSD and to
work with you on getting it accepted into FreeBSD, but as usual you're
more interested in talking about how cool it would be to have, than in
following through with code.

The offer remains open...
