Is OpenCRG on the roadmap?

Is it on the roadmap to also be able to model and export OpenCRG data alongside the OpenDRIVE? This would enable to build more detailed 3D models of the road surface for sensor simulation while also enabling a consistent vehicle dynamics simulation.

So far I didn't have it on my personal road map. It is interesting though and I just tought a bit about how to implement this. I think this could be done with an additional texture and/or modifier on the road mesh that is then used to export the CRG grid file.
Do you you know if there even exists any open source simulator though with support for OpenCRG files? Otherwise I probably wouldn't start to work on this anytime soon.

I only know commercial tools using OpenCRG. But I posted a corresponding issue in esmini (esmini/esmini#550), if this is on the roadmap there. esmini recently added friction support, so it might fit.

I just saw Emils response. So it's not yet on the roadmap in esmini either.
