Feature Request: "Look At X" cards to be sent to Bottom of Library; Also Randomly #125

Currently, there does not appear to be a way to resolve the effects of cards like Elvish Rejuvenator or Militia Bugler as intended. Cards like these read: "When [this card] enters to battlefield, look at the top five cards of your library. You may put a [card of specific type] from among them [onto the battlefield/revealed into hand]. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order."

Currently, there's not really a good way to resolve this effect as printed. The closest I can find is to manually cast 4 of the cards face down on the table (because the card effect doesn't say to reveal them to my opponent) and then use the "Shuffle Cards to Bottom of Library" function on them while moving the last card to the appropriate place, revealing as necessary. Alternately, I can kind of achieve this by using Scry 5 and putting my chosen on top and rest on the bottom, then moving the top card of the Library to my hand and revealing it. But this method doesn't place the bottom cards back in a random order.

As such, my feature request is as follows: Extend the "Look at X" dialogue box to allow the cards within to be sent to specific parts of the Library in a random order.
