Hi Alexandre,

Before we get into the details, I'd like to know if Miller has actually
stated that he would be interested in pulling this feature into Pd
Vanilla.

If he has I can definitely mentor you on putting together (and
testing) a patch for inclusion in Pd Vanilla.

If not, then I don't personally have time to spend on this.

But of course you are welcome to search the logs in the git
repo to find where we implemented this feature. (Again I don't
have time to go over how to do this, but maybe someone else
does.)

Best,
Jonathan
