Hi Jeremy,

this addition would definitely be much appreciated :-)

I think I would personally opt for giving the new functions different
names, just to prevent any back-compatability issues (deep nested mean
() calls in procedures that have _extra keywords set and suddenly
don't do what you're expecting, for example.)

Looking forward to this, it would simplify things greatly for me!

Thanks,
Chris
