Personally, I find the interpolation we have "adequate", but you're not
alone in thinking that a more powerful feature would be nice. Have a
look at this recent thread for some of the possibilities and problems:

As a general note, though, it's best to broach new topics with a bit
more thought than this - being able to say "I've looked into improving
X, and it seems possible that it could work like Y, with possible
problem Z; should I pursue the idea?" is going to get a more favourable
reaction than just "wouldn't you like X?".
