Initiator future

I understand that you guys discontinued the initiator. I suppose in favour of MS built-in initiator?
Well, I'm a home user and I'm considering iSCSI to centralise storage. However, I have grown accustomed to SSD disks and would like to have SSD-like performance even on remote drives.
I have been testing iSCSI for a while now and while performance is far from abysmal, it is still orders of magnitude slower than SSD.
Question:
You already support caching for server side. Would you be willing to consider continuing initiator development in order to build-in the cache logic?
It is always preferable to have both ends from the same provider and your VirtualSAN is looking really fine so far.
Thank you for your consideration,
Jure
