Dear Paul,
I noticed you contacted the Project Head already (got a cc copy of the email), but without providing a concrete design. As an implementation would first require a design anyway, I think it would be more efficient if anyone proposing a new feature could submit the design at the same time. Your option 1) would definitely require a design from you for an implementation to be possible. For the simpler option 2) I could of course propose a candidate sketch design as well:
How about using RPT_OPT(COM_TYPE,'1')=value for requesting ANNUAL level reporting for commodities of type COM_TYPE? It would also automatically trigger RPT_FLOTS = COM (for other types). Further selection could be made possible by RPT_OPT(NRG_TYPE,'1')=value, where the value would have to be negative to request ANNUAL level reporting for NRG commodities of subtype NRG_TYPE (a positive value is already being used for requesting power level reporting at COM_TS).
