Comment 1 Nathan Scott 2016-09-26 06:19:55 UTC 
This is unlikely to be tackled by anyone from Red Hats PCP dev group (or anyone else, realistically) as its fairly involved and the python interfaces provide a scripting language solution with this feature.

(OTOH if someone does wish to add this feature, please go right ahead and re-open the BZ, with associated patches attached :)
