Yes, I would have asked for now, if you hadn't... ;-)

So please...if it's not implemented and people receive AES
encrypted ZIP files and try to unpack them using 7-ZIP, they
would think 7-ZIP is incompatible if it does not support AES
encryption yet...so it's really necessary to implement it soon!

The problem that Winzip's AES is not standard.
For example, pkware has own AES.
So do we need to support all possible AES variants from
different vendors?
