Export of Markers in WAV files (aka sync points in Wwise and Fmod) crucial for game music

Man, it would be nice to have markers/syncpoints/cues right in the WAV files that Sonar exports.
 
Right now, I'm having to do it in a tool like Sound Forge before bringing it into my audio middleware for building the audio banks. The marker data is super useful for audio callbacks, so that functions can happen in time to interactive music in video games.
 
I know there hasn't been much positive response to this (see: http://forum.cakewalk.com/How-do-you-export-WAV-files-with-markers-m2580811.aspx ) but maybe the recent announcement of Nuendo 7 integration with Wwise and the growing number of game audio professionals using Reaper will be some sort of impetus for the Cakewalk powers that be...

    I'm with ya on this.  One of the reasons I use iZotope RXn just for inspecting audio is that it embeds track markers in the resultant wav file.  This should be an option with SONAR too.
