Maybe you could put it to the bug tracking system?  You can write a
feature request and attach your patch.  The good thing is that all the
replies and suggestions will be in one place, connected to that bug.

It's easier to find information in the bug tracking system than in the
mailing list.  Every bug has one topic, while threads in the mailing lists
can change the topic gradually.

Having a database of feature requests would be helpful for further
development.  Even an incomplete patch would show that the submitter
really wants the issue to be addressed.
