Custom 802.1x Suppliciant support

Hello, I'm currently developing a NAC agent and, based on my research so far, it seems macOS does not allow the use of a custom 802.1X supplicant. Is there any roadmap or indication that Apple may support third-party/custom 802.1X supplicants in future macOS releases? I'd appreciate any clarification or insight on this topic.

Correct.

Is there any roadmap … in future macOS releases?

Not that I’m aware of.

If you’d like to see such an API added in the future, I encourage you to file an enhancement request describing your requirements.

Please post your bug number, just for the record.
