2017 TCS Upgrades - can we get this?

Just wondering if anyone knows, can we flash the firmware on our TCS to get the 2017 modes? I mostly ride with it off but would be nice to see if they have anything interesting.
 
What say you internets?

Brick, I just read the service manual . It lists an ECU and an ABS ECU. The TCS section talks about routing signal through the ECU for traction control. I could be reading it wrong, it was just a cursory glance, but I'm hoping I'm reading it right as it does open the possibility.

I suspect it is the same modes as on the XSR900.
 
Here is the Motorcyclist magazine 'MC Commute' video on the 2016 XSR900, at 5 min 8sec he discusses and demonstrates the traction control.

Basically it appears one mode is similar to the 'on' form of TCS for FJ-09, and the new mode allows wheelies.. I'm sure there is probably more to it than that, but that seems the main easily observed feature.
