Im commenting in particular to you comment about wasting bandwidth....if 
you had done a thorough search of all docs avail from the Mythtv.org 
website, youd have seen that this has happened in the past (this being 
your specific 'feature request'), and by 'requesting' this 'feature' 
again, you were shooting yourself in the foot, as it is already on the 
wish list page, and no one has taken the time to code it yet since its 
been added to the Wiki, much less it hasnt been worked on since it was 
first asked on this list, which you wouldve found out if you had 
searched and searched the gossamer threads archives, then this whole 
discussion wouldnt have taken up any bandwidth, at least not a 1/10th.
