This is mostly for preview at the moment, there's a few corner cases
that I still want to iron out, including some cleanup of the code.

Nevertheless, this is what I could come up with in the little time I had
today. So far, it works, and I did not manage to break it horribly yet.

99% of the credit goes to Sergei, I merely adapted his code to 3.3, and
added some templating magic.

Sorry again that this took so long.
