That patch opens up a huge security hole in daemon servers, so that
would have to be handled somehow (perhaps by making those options
auto-refused). There are also several bugs/deficiencies that would need
to be fixed (my updated patch--see below--lists the ones that I saw but
didn't fix). Even if all that were done, I'd still be hesitant to add
these options, though.
I've just updated the several-year-old patch, and committed it into the
patches dir:
