Thanks for the quick reply Marco!

Not (yet) never, but not anytime soon in any version. The feature is considered extremely controversial, and it was only put it on the extreme long term roadmap for "never say never" reasons.

So it is best to not use it if you want to use FPC/Lazarus anytime soon.
