If so many people seem to need/want that feature - how about collecting some donations for it? Could the devs tell a estimated workload and thus a number how much it would cost to implement this? Can't be to difficult if one is already into the source of XBMC. And when every user yelling for this feature is donating lousy 5 bucks - it'll should be easy to get the founding. OpenSource means that the source code is freely available, but it doesn't mean that everything has to be free of charge. Just have a look at other OpenSource projects.
Btw. it'll be cool if there would be a possibility to donate for special features/bugfixes on the bugtracker - just like in "mantis" bugtracking system.
