There is a little prior work along these lines, see the second half of this

It's pretty resource intense. I don't speak for the development team, but
it kinda felt like the majority of the Bro community didn't think it was
that high of a priority. At least not for the University and un-classified
lab communities that I talk to. :) For Enterprise though, I could see
them potentially wanting to fund some additional work.
