As Rachael has explained, when a suggestion is closed as "DIY", it's not that programmers hate you or anything like that. GZDoom is a very large engine that has a lot of code built-in to support all sorts of situations, and hacks that have been used throughout the years. Adding more code to satisfy a use case not used by many people, will just make the engine slower (we already get enough complaints from ignorant users accusing "GZDoom is unoptimized"). So there is that angle to consider, please understand.
