  No.  There is no standard specification for this behaviour.  No RADIUS server *or* NAS supports it.

  Feel free to send patches.

  But the larger question is why?  And what NAS supports this?

  You can add this to FreeRADIUS all you want, but nothing else supports it.  So it's a cute idea, but utterly useless in practice.
