We have no specific plans, but we'd be glad to accept a PR that adds whatever support makes sense. Let us know if you decide to tackle this, or if you have any questions

Sorry, but I'm running so many open source projects in parallel to my normal job that I can't dig into another architecture and set of source files to understand and extend it.

As far as I have heard and read about subrepo it shall be easier in handling compared to submodule but offers the same functionality. If this is true, I suspect many users may change from submodule (which is supported) to subrepo.

That's fine, if it's important to someone I hope they'll contribute.
