I'll give you a response, but it might not be the one you are looking
for. ;)

1) Read the section "Patch submission guidelines" in HACKING;
specifically you didn't include a log entry documenting what you
changed, and you attached a zipped patch file (which makes it more
difficult to review).

2) Your patch file is a truly horrific combination of line endings (the
header of each diff has CR/LF, but the body has LF only).

3) Read also the section of HACKING which deals with code formatting;
you have tabs all over the place in your new code.

4) Enabling/disabling features based on #ifdef's is not popular among
the core developers (I know, because I proposed a patch which did just
that ;).

5) You need to be more patient; 1.1.0rc2 just came out and I would think
that most of the core developers are busy with testing that, and aren't
going to spend much time looking at new features.
