Key exchange methods

I see that libssh2 supports the following key exchange methods:

diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
diffie-hellman-group14-sha1
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1

I had a user of my application complain that he couldn't connect to his
server because it doesn't support any of these methods. Are there plans to
add any non-DH methods? I see a bunch of others that BSD's sshd supports:

curve25519-sha256_at_libssh.org
diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
diffie-hellman-group14-sha1
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256
ecdh-sha2-nistp256
ecdh-sha2-nistp384
ecdh-sha2-nistp521

Thanks,
George
