It was just a random thought, not a real use case

More than agreeable

Surely, if you could set a date for the meeting I'd like to do such a thing. I 
repeat: it was nothing done/in the works, but just a plan: me and Riccardo 
talked about a similar possibility a lot of times and almost everyone asked 
"is this possible? When will it be in?", so I think something similar to what 
you and me tried to describe could be worth it. Maybe more simple than what I 
thought, but that's surely some juice for the meeting.

Cheers,
Dario
