I am working on it already. I hope I can finished it soon and get it aproved and merged.
Thankyou @RFDarter !
any updates on this?
One more here. Totally agree with this feature. It's very useful.
After a few months, are we still waiting for this feature?!
I finally found some time to work on it. We need to test it on all the platforms. I only have ESP32`s here to test.
It also needs some docs to be able to get it merged. If someone would like to work on that, that would be great.
