Winds Download (new feature on the real NG)

Hi,i just read/saw the video on the Boeing website that Boeing is offering now live-weather/wind updates via Uplink to pretty much any plane in the air (they mentioned even airbus) in order to save some fuel. It looks like Alaska Airlines and KLM are already using this new option. My question would be if it would be possible to include this feature into an upcoming SP? I guess that FSX somehow has to read/know the current winds anyway so maybe the NGX could read that date. I think many/most of us are also using ASE for weather depiction and maybe this could also be used directly to get accurate wind data for the different FL and destination. I think this would be a real cool feature and certainly reflects the real thing! Any thoughts?

Regards,
Chris Volle
