I guess the first step to do that is identify the software that does
this, and make a request that this software be added to ports.

To improve your chances greatly of succeeding, you should attempt to
write the port makefiles for that software and submit it via PR.  People
are more likely to take a good base and make corrections than start from
scratch.
