we too have a need for Cisco firewalls to speak BGP, especially at some
our smaller mpls vrf borders; we get around this by running the Cisco
firewall in transparent mode (layer-2 mode) which allows for the bgp
sessions to be built without any layer 3 boundary on the firewall to
prohibit bgp sessions.
of course this doesn't address the need for bgp on the cisco firewall
but does provide a work-around for the lack of.
i too am would like to see bgp on cisco firewalls

At this moment we know that ASA5585-X does not support BGP.
I'm sure it doesn't. Routers are routers, firewalls are firewalls.
There are several firewall platforms that support BGP - and this can
actually be quite useful. Fortigate is one of them.
