STM32CubeIDE FatFs R0.12c

The FatFs version "R0.12c" provided by STM32CubeIDE is too old and buggy.
I would like to ask if there are any plans to upgrade to FatFs latest version in STM32CubeIDE.

As I know, FatFs used by STM32CubeIDE is open source from the site below,
and the latest version is already "R0.15".

Mar 04, 2017 : FatFs R0.12c
Nov 06, 2022 : FatFs R0.15 (latest release)

I manually ported FatFs "R0.15" to my project and tested its operation,
and the latest version has fixed many bugs and operates much more stably.

You can always just get the latest FatFs direct from the author:

It's all just standard C source code ...

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.
A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
