Hi Alexander,
technical this is not a major problem but your will have to talk to
VDA as he is the maintainer. And to be far in his position i would
think hard to support this. The reason is very simple lets assume

that would create a flood of 600+ config options way to much.

to have a chance you need an use case please explain to the ml why
you need that particular option. there is a good change that we can
suggest an alternative way.
