Formula Controller (proposing a new variable)

I would like to create risers and drops using the Patcher with Formula Controller to adjust pitch, pan, and volume.
However, the Formula Controller only has Time and SongTime as built-in variables.

I would like to create a riser using Patcher with a Formula Controller to adjust pitch based on the time in the Pattern which is passing the notes to the Patcher.

Could I get "PatternTime" added as a built-in variable. This variable would represent SongTime minus the time the pattern started at.

I am able to work around the problem on a limited basis by subtracting a value from SongTime. The value represents the number of beats between the start of the song and the start of the pattern. But this is a little cumbersome to calculate and also only works for that one position of the pattern. If I have the pattern used later in the song, I need to create a new version of Patcher with a new value to subtract from SongTime.

Adding "PatternTime" would make this a lot easier.
