Don't spend your time on this. NETGEAR's engineering virtually never listens and implements what people report or require. The only thing that will happen with your request is this:
1) it will get noticed by a community support member from NETGEAR
2) it will get passed on
3) Engineers will probably look at it and the chance is good they'll dismiss or forget about it
I've dealt with NETGEAR support and requests quite a few times myself and none of what I reported or requested got implemented. The only reasons why I'm using NETGEAR routers is that they a) have a decent build quality and b) they allow me to run third-party FW without too much effort. If one of the two wasn't met, I'll probably never consider NETGEAR again
