    It's THE feature I'm waiting for.

    Until then:
    One can use a n-MOSFET as substitute with 2 resistors of the same value (1-5M) from gate to drain and source, as a substitute.
    It will not clip symmetrically though, but acts just like a tube below saturation.

    A push-pull configuration with p- and n-MOSFET (high voltage types) a cap (between 10-100pF) and some resistors will be a substitute which you can even put into your amplifier. (symmetrical clipping).
    I did it once, and it sounded OK - but produces only even harmonics.
