When is system wide autoframe rate switching be implemented ?!

Question

We really need a system wide autoframe rate switching!

It is SO annoying to have to manually change framerate 10 times a day depending on what you are going to watch (and be lucky to know the source frame rate - which can be a nightmare for Netflix or Amazon).

Having to switch manually between 24hz (most movies and US tv shows) and 50hz (most UK tv shows) constantly is annoying as hell!

The worse is Youtube where you can have all sorts of frame rates (24 hz, 25 hz, 30 hz, 50 hz, 60 hz). A real stuttering party :/

The Apple TV 4k can do it!

Something has to be done about it or I'll have to switch reluctantly to Apple TV :(

Archos and Kodi can do it, so I guess pirating is the answer. Again.

It's implemented but the app needs to trigger the rate switch. So you need to bug app developers to implement it :/

Who has to do that? This is so baffling to me. I never change framerates or see anything that would make me think I should be changing anything. I go from a 4K remux on Plex, back to a 720 TV show download, to YTTV to a 4K show on Netflix. There are no playback issues seen ever. What does all this mean.
