Hi Valentin,

That is exactly the thing I wanted to achieve with this functionality.
Thanks for your answer! I will check it out and test it (with all the
caveats in mind that you mention).

When I asked, I thought that this could be a very clever and helpful
functionality - on the other hand it could have some pitfalls and it
could be less robust than explicit input. You seem to confirm both. I
will know more after using it.

Thanks again,
Joram
