Secure transfer for NFS file shares

Our development team uses Azure file shares for it's AKS container mounted storage but have been juggling between using SMB and NFS protocols. While SMB provides the "Secure transfer" feature in Azure, we'd prefer not to use it as it would then make any mounted files case-insensitive when accessing from the web.

 

Are there any plans to add the "Secure transfer" option for NFS file shares? The only documentation I could find on this is from https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-files-networking-overview#secure-transfer and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-troubleshooting-files-nfs#cause-2-secure-transfer-required-is-enabled where it says it's not available "yet" so I'm wondering if this is something that will be coming in the future.

 

Thanks!
