my thoughts is if we could control the opening and closing of the shutter this could come in handy for all sorts of applications, for example a trick for fire works is to set the camera to bulb mode so the shutter stays open and you use a black card that you can cover your lens to act as a shutter so you can layer multiple fire works, well why not do that electronically with the actual shutter and have the ability to open and close the shutter but stay on the same exposure as many times as you want before stating your done?

Also I tried searching for this but wasnt able to find a request like what Im looking for. ^^;;

This has been requested as "double exposure".
I just saw one post earlier, try a search and see what is returned.

At the same time, this way might be more plausible than a double exposure.
Whether ML devs have access to the mirror swing.
And whether the mirror swing is hard wired to stop start anything else.
