    Sorry, but you can always add it there. Isn't that so?
    To my knowledge, nothing and no one forbids to do so.
    However, this is not necessary at all, it only makes some procedures easier for you.

    But if you really want to have many additional problems in the future, you can find the tool you asked for here as well. It's there in spoiler.

    But I suggest you think very seriously before you start doing this nonsense.
