No current plans, but we accept contributions.
Cyrus SASL is supported and the only mechanism I can see supported by
Gnu SASL that's not in Cyrus is SCRAM-SHA-1. Is this a limiting issue
for you? Or the use of SASLprep for unicode string canonicalisation?
Look in src/auths/ to see where the authenticators live, and you might
want to look at cyrus_sasl.{h,c} for inspiration -- as I understand from
a quick skim over the gsasl documentation, it has a similar model to
Cyrus SASL: you pass data to the library and get transformed data back,
for passing over the network yourself.
