Support for OpenSSH Key Agent

Does or will WinSCP support Microsoft's OpenSSH Key Agent (SSH Agent v. 9.5.0.0) soon?

I want to log in via SSH using a sk-ssh-ed25519@openssh.com public key. The key itself is managed by KeePassXC and made available to the OpenSSH Key Agent as needed. With the current beta of OpenSSH from Microsoft (OpenSSH_for_Windows_9.5p1, LibreSSL 3.8.2), direct login via SSH already works. As HW Key I use a YubiKey FW 5.4.3, OpenSSH via Fido2.

Unfortunately, Pageant does not support sk keys, and the SK SSH Agent (a GitHub project) is not supported by KeePassXC.
