Will there eventually be a "New VM from Boot Camp" capability with High Sierra APFS?

    As in the header, I can no longer make a new Boot Camp VM or a new freestanding VM from Boot Camp with Windows 10.

    I knew this feature would not be available before I installed the HS public beta on my Mac, so I knew to create a freestanding VM from BC before migrating to Parallels 13 and High Sierra. This could be a real problem for someone who hadn't read the Parallels documentation.


    Is it likely that this will be fixed at some point, or is it impossible, since an APFS partition can't communicate with BC. (Although if this is the case, I don't understand why a BC VM made under Sierra still works.)
