Adding Bluetooth directly to the pyboard (instead of external module)?

So we have the WiPy that offers Wifi directly on the board and there is the JYMCU external chip that can be used with the pyboard.

But it would be nice to have Bluetooth directly on the pyboard, the JYMCU is quite big so adds a lot of space to add it to your design.

Any plans to add Wifi or Bluetooth directly on the pyboard? (The WiPy doesn't have the same amount of capabilities as the pyboard so it is not the same)

There is the esp2866 that has Wifi on the chip that micropython is being ported to. Is there one with Bluetooth?
