Multi-row insert in SQL

Anyone know if or when iSeries SQL will have a multi-row INSERT?

INSERT INTO tab_comp VALUES     (item1, price1, qty1),
                                (item2, price2, qty2),
                                (item3, price3, qty3)

instead of

INSERT INTO tab_comp VALUES (item1, price1, qty1)
INSERT INTO tab_comp VALUES (item2, price2, qty2)
INSERT INTO tab_comp VALUES (item3, price3, qty3)

It's in other flavors of DB2, as well as the SQL-92 standard.
