Front Report - Contact with Enemy

Would it be possible for a Front Report to be generated (and a notification sent) when a Unit first sees a new enemy unit?

Currently, with no notification of contact, an army ordered to advance to a target location will continue to advance, regardless of what enemy units have been detected ahead. This often leads to the advancing unit being destroyed, where this could be avoided (by calling up air support, halting & waiting for reinforcements, retreating etc). On the defensive side, a new contact report would provide the commander with the opportunity to prepare a defence or withdraw his forces before the attack commences.

Not an issue when you’re in the game and are watching things develop as they happen, but would be realistic and useful to receive this notification when you aren’t in the game, to give you an opportunity to react.
