Thank you for this pull request.

I'm not able to accept it as-is though. I've been advised by copyright legal not to accept external contributions to my core projects since that would make it impossible for me to re-license/dual-license this with other licenses than GPL in the future.

I've put in a lot of work in my tools and I've also received very little contributions from the community so I've decided I'd rather have the legal flexibility for the future than accept smaller contributions right now. Contributions as external plugins would be very welcome though :)

Of course it's, your decision. That said, other people deal with this by using a copyright assignment. Perhaps that's an option for you?

Yes, I would need to set up some papers with regards to copyright assignment and/or licensing to take care of this issue. There is some work involved so I'll probably wait until someone wish to contribute a larger chunk of code.
