Do you mind creating a ticket in the archiso issue tracker (this project is one of the internal projects that entirely moved to gitlab already)?
If you have concrete ideas for implementation, feel free to also sketch them in a merge request! :)
You need to create an SSO account (https://accounts.archlinux.org/), which will be done once you attempt to sign up with our gitlab.
