Certainly not soon.  Manfred Koizar and I are doing some work on this

some time before the 7.4 feature freeze and has only recently started
again.

There are no public resources available, only some patches posted in the
pgsql-patches list; but the latest versions have only travelled privately
between Manfred and me.  The status is "there's a lot to do yet" but I
think we are getting closer.
