Map fields as function and program parameters

I would be nice if it was possible to parse map fields as in/out parameters to functions and programs.
That would enable the programmer to write common functions and programs, setting the attributes of the map fields.

    Thank you for your request. However, we do not expect to make further enhancements in the TUI area, as this is legacy technology.
