What's a "roadmap"? :-)

There is no detailed roadmap for Wireshark; some changes may manifest 
themselves as projects intended for a given release, but others are just 
"whatever somebody takes the time to do".

Because nobody's taken the time to do so.

(And it's not specifically a pcapng feature - pcap also supports both 
microsecond and nanosecond precision.)
