When Adobe plans to finally implement support for XML files from Sony's XAVC?

It's 6 years after Sony F5/55 release and 4 years after FS7 release. Those cameras are one of the most popular and widely used everywhere. Yet each and every time when importing files I get an error as seen on a screenshot.

COME ON ADOBE, YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Those files are not needed by Premiere Pro. They contain metadata about the clip that Premiere Pro does not use.

Is there a reason you need that information imported?

If you navigate to the Clip folder, select it and then import it, Premiere will see the .mxf flies - which are the clips, and the .xml files which are the unnecessary metadata. It will then import the clips only and report not importing the xml files.

Other edit systems may use the XML files that are associated with the clip.

Error while importing is not my main concern (which is annoying) but I refer to full support of XAVC files. By full support I mean metadata is read from either mxf or xml files - doesn't matter, with correct EI (Exposure Index) and all the other info. We know Adobe can do it because files from Arri Alexa have full support.
