Nvidia NVENC Encoding Request

Could we get Nvidia NVENC encoding added to 14. Is it possible to partner up with Tmpgen (Pegasus) who put out the Video Mastering Works 6 program? They keep updating their encoders for newer cards unlike Main Concept--maybe they could write a NVENC encoder plug in for 14. NVENC encoding quality looks better than CUDA to me...It is also 5x times faster than x265 for encoding. I use Debugmode FrameServer to render out projects from Vegas 13 to video mastering works and use NVENC with my GTX 960 card--Things render much faster that way.

Sort of on-topic... If FERMI nVidia architecure has ben hard-coded by some idiot out there - perhaps a simple "daemon" dll could "translate" requests to never cards' implementation of CUDA so that they are ised, at least for T/L acceleration? I bet it could be done
