I wouldn't really say that it's tentatively planned. I don't recall Walter 
ever weighing in on it at all, and no one is working on it. Rather, the 
current situation does not prevent it, and there's definitely some desire for 
it in the community, so there's a decent chance that it'll be implemented 
eventually. There are no plans for it though.

Regardless, adding them should be backwards compatible, so it's really not a 
problem to wait until other more pressing issues have been addressed and the 
language has better stabilized before adding such a feature.
