I'm sorry I don't really have time to get this fixed ATM (basically I
don't do source uploads which means I cannot control how the code is
fixed etc).

To put the story to an end:

1) Yes there *was* some support for this in my code (I wrote it back 3 ubuntu cycles from now)
2) I think the code was never released due to 0.2 -> 0.3 failed rewrite and multiple versions actually shipped by Ubuntu (which are now de facto latest version)
3) Yes there is no *released* version that supports this

I'd love to fix this but maintaining this package is a pain in the neck: 
 * building the database requires tons of bandwidth or someone to constantly help you at canonical
 * python has some nasty issues that I didn't know of when I started - it's better to rewrite this in C
 * I have a full-time job and a family which kind of get in the way
