I extract my boms from the .pcb file, and usually there are a lot of
handwritten changes before it goes to a technician, so it is not
essential to have this functionally in the netlister.  When the bom now
says value=$R2 it is at least obvious where I need to add information :-)

I do not know if that may be usefull for somebody.  One of the
criticisms of my patch was that is is too limitted.
