Slush: Namecoin Total?

[VishwaJay]

I'm not meaning to embarrass slush or try to control his site/pool/whatever, but I was wondering why there isn't a "total reward" box in the user account stats for Namecoin mining in the same way that there is for Bitcoin mining.

People who aren't slush can also respond, I'm interested to know if there is a technical/legal reason for this, mostly to take the load off of slush, who is really getting overworked these days in keeping his pool going (and that's not sarcasm, that's honest observance, based on slush's posts).

I'd also like to know if anyone really cares about it besides me.

Merged mining isn't really supported anymore, I think. I never mined enough namecoins to even get past the minimum payout so I'm not sure how it works.

It's actually accruing... not regularly, but there is an amount there.

Just wondering why it's not added up like the Bitcoin totals are.
