This is something that's been requested for a while I think. Hopefully its availability in SP means the framework should already be there to move it into MP. I really hope it isn't members only though. IMO, it should be unlocked at the same level as Custom Scenario, as it's pretty much a part of what Custom Scenario already should have been.
