STM32L4 - New packages planned?

Hello

First of all, congratulation for the power efficiency of the ''new'' STM32F411, at low speed it's actually more efficient than a STM32F0, impressive. But I'm missing one important feature, it hasn't touch sensor channels. I assume that the new STM32L4xx serie, that has touch sensors, will perform even better in terms of power consumption (still no data in the datasheet). But there is a problem. There is no compact QFN48 (7x7mm) or even smaller QFN32 (5x5mm) displayed on the product page. I know there are CSP and BGA versions available, but it need costly and more complex PCBs. Is there at least a QFN48 package version of the L4 planned in the near future (I mean still this year)? Thank you.
