It's too late for landing such features on emacs-26. Sorry, it will have to wait until Emacs 27. Emacs 26 is nearing its release; the stream of serious bugs (or any bugs, actually) seems to have died out. So hopefully one more pretest, and we will be ready to go. Adding a significant new feature, which will no doubt need changes in other places, is incompatible with that.
