initial seeding mode

I'm very interested in Deluge, however I'm a heavy seeder, and I rely on super/initial seeding mode to spread data out as fast as possible. Deluge FAQ states that there's no such feature, but there's no explanation on whether it will never implement, or any reason for not having this feature.

my question is, is there any plan on implement a super seeding mode? if not, what's the reason not to do so?

thanks

it isnt gonna happen. we have a fundamental objection to the methods of "super-seed" or "initial-seed", whatever you wanna call it, as does the main developer of libtorrent. it's use hurts bittorrent, is utterly ineffective, and will not be supported.
