I'll respect committers. I really don't want to worry people in the
community. It is not my way, and I am sorry.

I think this is an important feature - for some group of developers, and
then I push my energy and time for this.
On the other hand, I accept that there is a lot of work that is important
for a wider group of users. So it is. Unfortunately,
without parser's hooks this feature cannot be implemented as an extension.
But parser's hooks was proposed,
and rejected, so there is no other possibility, how to do it. More -
implementation of this feature as an extension is not
best way.
