Premiere Pro CC Support for Sony's XAVC S (not XAVC)

I've seen this asked in various places however nobody from Adobe has addressed the issue so the result is a bunch of speculation from other users.  Could someone from Adobe PLEASE tell us if there are plans to support Sony's XACV S codec in Premiere Pro CC and if so when we can expect to see this support added.  Sony's had a couple of really great 4k camera's available for some time now however if there's not going to be support for the codec there's really no point to buying one.  I really want to start adjusting my workflow to support 4K but I can't really begin to do that without knowing if or when Adobe will support XAVC S.  An answer from someone at Adobe would be greatly appreciated or if other users have an info I'll take whatever I can get.  Thanks!

    Hi Chuck,

    I really want to start adjusting my workflow to support 4K but I can't really begin to do that without knowing if or when Adobe will support XAVC S.  An answer from someone at Adobe would be greatly appreciated or if other users have an info I'll take whatever I can get. 

    Support for XAVC-S was added in Premiere Pro CC.1 (7.1). Hope that helps.

    Thanks,

    Kevin

    It works in FCPx..which I kinda hate.  I love the fact that Adobe ignores you

    I was on a trial of Premiere and this post showed me all I have to know about Premiere

    Simple get a Blackmagic intensity pro 4k card and take advantage of the software. You need that card to enjoy your CS6
