Is there an enterprise level solution for using ZK with Grails?

With ZK offering "ZK Spring" and "ZK JSP", I feel like there should be another offering like a "ZK Grails" or "ZK GSP" product. I'm aware of two plugins that try to fill this gap (ZKGrails, ZKUI), but they don't seem close to an enterprise level solution. In fact, it seems that some commercial vendors that rely on the ZKGrails plugin use version 1 of that plugin, which to the best of my understanding immediately limits them to using Grails 1.x, and ZK 5.x. In my opinion this was done as ZKGrails version 2.x doesn't support some of the functionality that ZKGrails version 1.x supports, such as embedding ZK into GSPs which would facilitate leveraging Grails CRUDiness. People starting a project with Grails and ZK in their technology stack that want to leverage Grails's CRUD scaffolding would be required to start work in non-current releases of two major frameworks, which is a mistake in my opinion. So if there was an official ZK product for this, I think it would be very helpful. Does anyone know if this is in the works or not? Thanks.
