Hello,

Once something becomes part of Xamarin.Forms, it has to run on that
schedule, and has higher barriers for backwards compatibility.

For now, Forms remains single focused on being a good cross-platform UI
abstraction.  I think there is nothing wrong with using other third party
components to fill other gaps.

Miguel.
