Use universe queries as data sources using SAP BI 4.0?

Hi,

I was happy when SAP definetely include Unverse query suupoty as analysis datasource in the latest Design Studio release 1.2. Bit to my surprise the installation guides clarifies that:

"The BI platform server needs to be SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence 4.1. If you want to use universe queries as data sources in your analysis applications, you cannot use SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence 4.0."

We are currenly using SAP BI 4.0 SP8 with no plans to move ahead 4.1 until next year. My question yes: does anybody knows if SAP considers to extend universe query support using Design Studio to 4.0 in some future Service Pack (SP9/SP10 ?) ?

Thanks

Alfons
