There is no plan as CentOS is not the place that decides these things.
CentOS is a rebuild of RHEL and rebuilds and ships those things that
make up RHEL. It doesn't go off and unilaterally decide to upgrade a
core component of the operating system just because it's new and shiny.

If you want it in CentOS then it has to go into RHEL first.
