If I'm not mistaken, you already sent a similar mail a couple of days
ago. Please do not spam the ML with the same messages over and over,
especially since there is no patch attached. I know it's frustrating
not to get any answer, but such is life.

I support you on implementing those options/commands, and hope you
will succeed in that. I'm sure people will help you if you can ask
specific questions about specific code. In order to get some
inspiration, I think you should  search the mailing list for previous
slave command patches (use gmane.org)
