Why don't you submit it as a pull request for the mono source? Also, did you look up the Microsoft reference source?

There are two Microsoft reference sources - you have to make sure you look at the right one (MIT licensed) because you're forbidden to contribute to mono sources if you looked at the other reference source (MSPL licensed).

There's a "contributing guide" here: http://www.mono-project.com/community/

The contributing guide has some verbage about "If you have looked at Microsoft's proprietary... you will not be able to contribute," but it's all striked-out, and added the new verbage, "Microsoft open-sourced parts of .Net" and includes a link to .Net Source Code Integration.

The first question there would be, has MS open-sourced the part that you care about?
