Maybe try writing a patch, submitting a bug report, or CCing Eli?
Otherwise, I'd worry that your suggestion might fall through the cracks.
(I've taken the liberty of CCing Eli.)
I would suggest CCing an area maintainer as well, but I'm not sure if
Daniel Jacobowitz is really still active.
(Note that it's not worth writing a patch yourself if you can't/don't
want to complete the annoying copyright assignment paperwork.)
