That depends entirely on when someone wants that support enough to write 
code for it, or to somehow convince someone else to write code for it.

I'll note, though, that if TomTom has documented the ITN format 
somewhere, that prospective programmer might want to be very careful 
about whether they read it or not.  The file format documentation for 
the .ov2 format comes with a license agreement that essentially prevents 
you from using the information contained therein to write tools like 
GPSBabel, and once you've read the format spec you can't unread it.  (I 
have not read that format spec for that reason; I reverse-engineered the 
format from other sources.  I've heard that the documentation isn't 
complete anyway, so I guess when you sign away your rights you don't 
even get the whole thing.)
