Right - recent kernels - this kernel is 2.6.31 based, and while it may backport fairly easily, I don't know if anyone at Genesi has the time to do so, and those of us outside it... don't have as much free time as we used to. So if you'd like to see it in this kernel, it would be forever helpful if you tested that it worked and sent a pull request :)
