Comment 2 Adam Taylor CLA 2010-08-06 19:39:00 EDT 
attachment 176076 [details] adds a new extension point to imp which will allow the target language to handle this use case however they see fit.
Comment 3 Robert M. Fuhrer CLA 2010-09-09 16:31:27 EDT 
Patch looked very reasonable, and backwardly-compatible, so I applied it to HEAD of SVN trunk. Change will go out in the next release.

Thanks, Adam!!
