Would the following work?

IIRC, as of now it won't work. However this is on our plate and Anuradha
had done some work on this, not sure whether the patch is yet available or
not for review.

@Anuradha - could you shed some light on this?

Ok, thanks Atin.


How about removing the brick (dropping down to rep 3), then re-adding it?

Like Atin said this will not work as of now.
A patch was up for review but new requirements were added to it. I need to
rework on
it and put it up again.
