Any chance for working step "ElasticSearch Bulk Insert"?

[Gosforth]

Elastic has Logstash to load data into Elasticsearch. Problem is that this piece of software is really bad quality; actually it does not work with JDBC MySQL.
What Pentaho is doing in seconds, Logstash needs hours.
But "ElasticSearch Bulk Insert" step is not working with last edition of Elasticsearch. Will it be done in next release? Any news about that?

It appears that there's an improvement request to update the step to support ElasticSearch 5.x or 6.x, in PDI-16656.

If you're an Enterprise Customer, you may want to reach out to Pentaho Support so they can note your company's interest in that, so they can consider that when prioritizing work for future releases.
