Is SetSpecialColor in next release?

   The last release of CommandBars included the 'SetSpecialColor' method.  This was a great feature that gave the developer control over the colors used in the application.  Since the ActiveX version doesn't support custom themes, this is all we have.
I want my application to use the 'Whidbey' style color themes (like in the MFC Whidbey example), but this can't currently be done in ActiveX.  To pull this off, all Codejock controls that use themed drawing will need to support the 'SetSpecialColor' method.  Otherwise, the controls don't share a common color theme.
Can anyone at Codejock comment if this feature will be included in the next release of Xtreme Suite?
