[mythtv] Reactive EITpf?

In the UK BBC1,2,3 and 4 have reactive EITpf actual - i.e. the rollover 
from following to present event is triggered by the automation system 
in the playout suites. The EITpf other for these services and all 
others, and the EITpf actual data for all other services follows the 
scheduled playout time and cannot be triggered (amendments to the 
schedule can be made if it becomes grossly inaccurate - e.g. following 
very late running sporting events - however they can take a few minutes 
to get through and be republished in the SI)

For BBC1-4 it is standard practice to trigger the rollover at the 
beginning of the last trail before the next program starts, and so if 
the program is late running the trigger will be late going to the 
SI/PSI generator. I was wondering if this feature was going to be used 
by mythtv to enable more accurate recording of shows?
