    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. This request for enhancement is not currently aligned with our product strategy and vision in the next 18 months and for this reason we declining it. Again, thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
