Actually, it's never been asked (that I know).

Because I have a custom patch to it which adds this support. I've
been hesitent to commit the work because I'm not sure it's "right" for
Subversion's mailer script to add support for one particular
third-party tool. That would open the door for support for *all* such
third-party tools, and that's not a burder I think the script should
bear. I could post the patch, or toss into a contrib/ directory, I
suppose.

Do others here have any opinion on this?
