The problem with these "options" is in many cases that they do not really speed up the process.
E.g. Creating an export with or without BOM is something that is very often a subject to support requests, simply because it is deep down in the catacombs of the options.

In the past month there have been 2 suggestions in this forum for different colouring schemes even though the option with the grid lines is already there.

and

The next step then is usually to ask to move this option to a more prominent place ...
I have the impression that one cannot win as long as only one solution is considered as the valid one (even though there are alternatives).
What I wonder: the requested feature is not available at the moment. So what happens now?
Do you put all files with non-plain-ascii characters on a "to be done" heap and stop working on them?
And if the feature is never implemented, do you delete the files?
Or do you think of a way how to achieve the goal with already existing functions?
If you find a way with existing functions you have this procedure ready and do not need to wait until somebody else uses his grey matter.
