The suggestion seems good. On the other hand, you can usually contact the
owner/developer if it's an already available alpha/beta extension and offer
help (via money or brain stuff).

The suggestion open new way to work which is alsway good.

Are you going to sponsor Kasper for this addition to TER ?

- just kidding ! -

A faster (maybe?) implementation of this idea would be to setup kinda
Wiki/blog/forum page where every typo3.org BE users would offer/ask for such
help and sponsoring and provide a better visibility than this mailinglist.
