Possibility to use custom source definitions in combination with "Create EGL Client interface"

We would like to have the possibility to use custom source definitions in combination with "Create EGL Client interface".
This way we can make sure a new "EGL - Create EGL client interface" action is not moving records to other sourcefiles.

In the backend when using: New Data Access Application, record structures are overwritten too. But there it is possible to use code blocks:

//BEGIN custom source definitions

//END custom source definitions

This works great when generating the Data Access Application! But this doesn't work when generating an EGL Interface.
