I already worked on merging the code into the dpkg source and
a month ago or so I were almost far enough, to send it for review
by the dpkg maintainers, but then I lost time for it and the process
has stalled a bit.

I cannot say when I'll be able to finish that, but I'll try to
spend some time on it again, soonish.

Best Regards,
Patrick
