I don't know that it does - getting those added rely on someone wanting
them enough to do the work.
The primary reason I selected RealVNC was that it builds on the current
Xorg sources, and don't introduce yet-another-Xserver source base,
especially not the ancient XFree86 3.3.6 that is missing needed extensions
for accessibility, JDS, compositing managers, and missing the last decade
or so worth of security fixes and bug fixes. If one of the other Xvnc
forks, such as TurboVNC or TightVNC could be similarly built, I would see
little problem in replacing RealVNC with one of them.
