Sunny or Shady?

What do you think of the following suggestion for additional MP functionality?

When planning a trip to a climbing area I have not been to yet, I would like to know if a route is sunny or shady (in the morning, or afternoon, or starting at what time).

And of course this would be different for each season.

Right now that info is occasionally described in comments (but rarely).

MP users can easily populate this information for each route. (e.g. sunny until 1 pm during winter). This is information we all know well for our local crags.

Is this something that you would like to see?

I appreciate good shade beta.

I think noting the aspect of a particular crag would be more useful/feasible rather than specifying at which hours of each day for each season a route gets shade.
