Terminal Support in NB: Windows subsystem Linux vs Cygwin

Dear list

I use CygWin under Netbeans from 8.2 (Windows64 version) and it works
really nice (as like Bash terminal under a Linux based NB).

My question: Now Windows OS support WSL (Windows subsystem for linux),
which is more powerful and more compatible than CygWin for native Linux
application in Windows OS. So, Does NB team have some plan to incorporate
WSL Terminal in Windows-NB ( in future, at least)?

Thanks in advance
