Official word on whether 3 TB drives will eventually support Boot Camp would be nice

I was about to buy a new iMac with a 3 TB drive, but then I learned that the 3 TB internal drive is not currently supported by Boot Camp.

It would be nice to get some official word on whether Boot Camp with a 3 TB drive will eventually be supported, or if an iMac with an internal 3 TB drive will be forever locked out of Boot Camp.

Boot Camp cannot install Windows to an external drive (which was a surprise to me, but this is in the official documentation), so there is currently no way to boot into Windows on an iMac with a 3 TB internal drive (although virtualization will still work).

Apparently this is a known issue that has to do with historical UEFI firmware issues and Windows not supporting large drives with MBR (master boot record). Additional discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3827724?start=0&tstart=0

The discussions started in March (2012) and it appears that there is no official indication as to whether this problem is likely to be addressed.
