We (Volker, Metze, Günther, Michael and me) talked about these two functions
again. Maybe we should try to get them into 3.2.0 to avoid bumping the
library version number in 3.2.1.

Is it possible to finish them until May 21? If yes, I would propose to
pick it for 3.2.0rc1. Do you agree?

Cheers,
Karolin
