Add More "generic data #" Logical Sensors to Meteobridge?

I'm in the process of migrating from 9 years on Meteohub (on iConnect) to Meteobridge (on RPI3B) and have ran into a stumbling block. It seems that Meteobridge does not provide as many Logical Sensors for mapping of generic data physical sensors as Meteohub does. Currently Meteobridge only seems to support up to 20 mapped generic data Logical Sensors (meteohub supports up to 40):

I have a lot of non-weather related "generic data" from energy monitor devices I need to store. I won't be able to get off of Meteohub until I can feed the Meteoplug server with up to 40 mapped generic data logical sensors from Meteobridge in order to match the existing 9 years of data I have on the Meteoplug server.

Boris, if at all possible please add this to your list of future enhancements for Meteobridge. :D

You don't need to map to logical sensors. You can work with the physical sensors directly in charts, exports, etc.

Weathernetworks, that rely on logical sensors, will most probably not make use of this data anyway.

I need the additional logical sensors for my Meteoplug feed. They have to be mapable inorder to match the existing data already in Meteoplug. I do not upload that data to any other "weathernetworks" so that is not a problem, just need them for Meteoplug.
