May I ask why? It seams like a good feature and fetching info would be way quicker if done natively.
mainly because nobody has brought it up for discussion yet.
moving it into core has it pros and cons.
it would be faster yes, but less easy to add additional features to it along the way.
a good example would be the recent request for recently added season thumbs.
if recently added was still a script, i could've added it the same day and everyone could have start using it right away.
but since it's in core, we'll have first to wait till eden is released.
then it can be added to pre-frodo, but this will mean the majority of users (who prefer stable releases) will have to wait for another year (until frodo final is released) before they can use it.
1 day vs. 1 year is a hell of a difference imo. :-)
