This does seem fairly low risk since it's just implementing a function 
that previously raised a NotImplemented exception.  However, with it 
being so late in the cycle I think we need the release team's input on 
whether this is possible.  Most of the release FFE's I've seen have been 
for critical bugs, not actual new features.  I've added that tag to this 
thread so hopefully they can weigh in.
