Yeah, well I did mention the bugzilla [0] I raised for this in the cover 
letter; but I think that the new process workflows to raise feature 
requests in this way still needs to be formalized, so this may be 
blocked for now [1].

And unfortunately I can't actively participate in relevant standards WGs 
either, so if anyone else would like to assist, then that would great...

BTW, I think that it might also be good to request a generic 
jedec-compatible SPI NOR part ACPI HID/CID here also.

Thanks,
John
