Hi Gilles,

The patch is finished since more or less two weeks. I hoped to get the
functionality in 5.4. 
But due to many changes it took me some time to merge my changes in my working
directory of the master branch and polish the code.
I did not create explicit test cases. I still have to dig through the testing
facility of DK.

I tested the functionality only by hand, i.e.
- reviewing the DB changes introduced by the new property
- reviewing ApplicationSettings changes 
- confirming the sort order in DK in corellation to the DB property entries

When was the feature freeze or better, when is the feature freeze usually?

Perhaps someone else has some time to test my changes, too. Thus, I'll just
upload the (git diff) patch.

Cheers,
Mario
