Need the ability to change the IO group of a volume that is in a remote mirror relationship without having to resync Merged

Today for volumes that have a remote mirror relationship. We have 2 options when we want to
Option 1: disruptive (requires down time from the host)
change the I/O group.
Stop the host I/O
stop the replication
Remove the remote mirror
change the I/O group of the volume
create the remote mirror and mention the volumes are already synchronized.

Option 2: Non disruptive (but leaves systems vulnerable until a full sync can occur)
Remove the remote mirror
change the volume io group
create a new remote mirror and start the synchronization from zero.

We need an option that we can move a volume from IO group 0 to IO group 1 even if that volume is replicated through remote mirror. Today this is not possible.
