Distance Fog Mod (like in old games) to save fps, with in-game ui to switch on in heavy scenery?

Hello there.
While walking in snow and tundra areas, my fps is fine. When walking through the forest, it tanks. But because of so much trees, i don't even see the distance that gets drawn to suck my fps. Thinking of around riften and falkreath... Having a grey or maybe yellowish-greenish fog 30 meters in front of me wouldnt spoil the experience, and maybe i could win serious fps? 

Couldnt we have real distance fog like in old early 3d games to drasticly save fps in those situations?
Maybe even with autocolor fitting the scene?

I imagine having a hotkey to swap it on and off (like when entering combat) and some ingame menu to change simple parameters like fading distance and maybe a static color.

Edit:
When i use nat3.1 weather, having heavy fog weather in a city outskirt for example helps immensly.
