I don't think this patch needs to be committed. As you say, it's
impossible to test, and from what I understand requires a modified
client that supports this feature[1].

The patch can stay in the bug tracker and interested parties are free
to apply/test/update the patch as things progress. If part of it is to
be committed, let the authors decide how to split the patch up.
