Exactly! It's what I'm speaking about! But I don't find it in the source 
of sword, if someone can help me?

I'm really disappointed that no one in charge of the project reacted to 
this incredible proposal!
Please respond! At least let Arnaud propose a patch, so you can test and 
validate or not...
That's the tragedy of this list, there are often questions that remain 
unanswered, which prevents us from moving forward.
