Currently this is not being worked on. However if you would like to
implement these features, you can fork my copy of TeXworks on GitHub:

  https://github.com/Sharpie/TeXworks

and submit a pull request against `texworks-trunk`. I would be more than
happy to review the changes commit them upstream to SVN.
