Saw this closed issue for adding boomerang support was marked "incomplete", so here's a more complete request, as I would also appreciate this site being supported. The service offers a 7-day free trial for credentials. If someone picks up this issue for active work and needs longer-term access to sort it out, I'd be happy to set up an account for that.
