It's kind of a tricky problem, so it might take a while for them to

add.

Anything they do can only be a half measure at best. It is the same
situation as doing a program call using a variable name. Since the
file/program name can be dynamically constructed it can resolve to any
file/program on the system (or even non-existent ones). No tool can handle
that by static analysis.
