Well, if you like wishlists that will never be implemented :) There are
very few chances nv ever gets such a big new feature.

You should rather have requested the packaging of the "nouveau" driver
since it is supposed to provide much more features than the nv driver.
No need to actually request it, some people are already working on it,
it might arrive in experimental in the near future.
