 Definitely not - at this point in time I don't see that core needs to add
 this feature.

 Sometimes you will need more than core to develop a complex site - we are
 not trying to solve 100% of use cases only the more significant ~80%.  The
 other 20% is where plugins sit in the eco-system so that you can make it
 your WordPress
