Hi Shanktar, don't consider my reply as authoritative (I'm a casual sklearn contributor and I absolutely don't have any final say). In my personal view a quite crude but effective way to judge if something should be implemented in sklearn is to verify if the algo/topic/problem formulation can be found in the contents section of the "Elements of Statistical Learning" book. I'm not knowledgeable at all about reinforcement learning but I tend to agree with Alejandro's point of view. Hopes this helps.
