Hi @nth10sd - We are sorry to inform you that at this point in time, it is difficult to add this tool to our images.
Having said that we will surely re-evaluate the possibility of addition of this tool.
However, we will consider including this tool if more users want it.
Hence closing this feature request as of now.
Thanks.
