You are responding to a comment made 6 years ago and pointing to a GitHub issue that has been closed since 2017.
Instead of resurrecting old forum topics and commenting on closed GitHub issues, you need to open a new GitHub issue with your request, while referencing the previous closed issue and explaining why you need this feature.
You will not get attention the way you are approaching this, just as the poster above didn’t get a reply.
Also for future reference, please have a look at the updated forum rules over here.
