It would definitely be better -- but it would require further local
changes to the FreeBSD web infrastructure, and the version of send-pr
that we distribute in the base of every system.  While patches are
welcome, please note that it would also be a long time before every
old version of send-pr, that does not have these features, would be
retired, and thus this classification algorithm would be required
in the mean-time.
