Will Splunk update Java SplunkLib for Custom Search?

Does Splunk ever plan on updating the java api to mirror the python splunk-sdk? The java library is way behind the python library when it comes to custom search.  As far as I can tell you cannot even create custom searches with java for Splunk.

 

1. Splunk could more easily integrate with a variety of apache tools. 

2. You would get a performance boost in for applications that really should not be built in java.

3.  Splunk would open itself up to a larger segment of the developer community.
