Lively discussions on the graphic arts and publishing — in print or on the web

So I've been practicing some macro photography lately which has left me wondering why no camera has an F-stop bracketing feature. They all have exposure bracketing but it would also be nice to have a feature whereby,when in aperture mode, the camera will take a second (or tertiary) shot at a 1/2 or 1 stop either side of your selected aperture.

Aside from taking the artist out of the equation somewhat, is there something I'm missing that dictates why they don't have such a feature?
