Actually, there was a last "ok, this works" missing. If it was so
important,
why didn't you add a comment to mantis or send a mail? Fixes and
especially
anhancements need to be actively supported, especially by their
creators.
In this case it was *only* missing this last "please add this, I
tested it in 3.9a, it works".
