Make Louvre Panel Available for Doors

Please please please can we have the Louvre panel made available for Doors the same as for Windows. I know I can make a custom panel but surely it's fairly straightforward to add this as an option to doors the same for windows. We often need it to define a pant room or other service space door.

Given how they are scripted, this is not quite as easy as it seems as the door panels are a single macro, which I believe use quite a few parameters that are different from those found in windows... 

 

I ended up making my own louvred panel that I duplicate each time I need it that works well enough...

hopefully they incorporate sounds simple enough but coding it might be way complicated. 😅

If they were to update doors and / or windows, my hope is that they would allow the pass though of parameters to custom panels / parts as well as a few extra for custom usage.

 

I did make a relate wish for this a few years ago, though there was no comment from GS and wishes seem kind of dead on this forum...
