Will serialization factor of 6 in LVDS serdes IP be supported in the future on Agilex5?

Hi,

Agilex 3 and 5 SERDES are apparently limited to 4 and 8 deserialization factor. I'd assume for the time being that the restriction is in silicon and can't be overcome by software. See e.g. this previous discussion 

Deserializers in Agilex 3 series | Altera Community - 324280

For x12 deserializer, I see an acceptable solution by using x4 deserializer, external 3x4 bit shift register and external PLL with FCLKx3 slow clock. Implementing e.g. x10 deserializer for popular 8b10b encoded links is more complicated, particularly when looking at synchronization logic. I'd appreciate an Altera reference design for 8b10b receiver with Agilex 3/5.
