That would be ideal for those users that wish to record two mono sources at the same time (such as guitar in one channel and vocal in the other).
You're not the first person to mention this - I seem to recall just such a discussion on the Forum elsewhere just recently.

Technically this is an easy change.
The hard part is deciding where to put the option and what to do in the case of systems that support more than 2 channels.
