Subject	[equinox-dev] Will P2 ever support install handlers that execute        code?

I have been reading about P2 and its
lack of support for update manager style install handlers, and the touchpoint
technology in various places.  
 
We (Curl Development Tools for Eclipse)
use an install handler to write a property file that we later use to find
and launch our RTE.
 
From reading the Touchpoint instructions
at your wiki, it looks like the p2 in 3.4 is not able to execute install
handler code like the update manager.  Right?
 
Question:  Will P2 be able to do
that in some version?  When?
