More weapon slots possible?

Would it be possible to add more weapon slots to units?

Currently only 3 are supported by the GUI (although 4 slots are in the unit files).

Some 40k units definitely have more than 3 weapons. Take the Baneblade, the iconic IG super-heavy, for example:

Mega Battle Cannon
Co-axial autocannon
Demolisher cannon
2 lascannon
3 twin hvy bolters

That's a lot of powerful weapons right there, none of which deserve being ignored or rolled into another group.

You could theoretically add a sixth group (but this weapon has negligible effect, so could be omitted):

Pintle-mounted storm bolter

The Baneblade is an extreme example, but there are lots of units which should have 4 or more weapon systems (including the Warlord titan if you decided to add it).
