Depletion mode FET

Would it be possible to add depletion mode FETs in the circuit simulation?

You can do this by changing the threshold voltage. Right click on a FET, Edit, set the threshold voltage to a negative number (for n-MOSFETs).

Literature does margainalise this veriety, having a mention in the program would help awareness. The best could be as a second alonside the positive fet in the n-MOSFET demo (fed by same supplies?). The program will have to observe the polarity of the threshold to call it Depletion or Enhancement FET when the user hovers over it.
