Can you add US National Grid (USNG) coordinates, please?

I just took a class for Wide Area searches.  I learned that FEMA uses the USNG system.  Currently, GAIA only supports MGRS (and a few others).  Even though MGRS and USNG coordinates are close, they are not identical.  In the event of a large scale event where FEMA is involved, it would be nice to relay the exact coordinates and not “close” estimates because you are relaying MGRS coordinates and not USNG within one app and not have to switch between an app like GAIA and an app that only provides coordinates.

  I can see how supporting USNG coordinates would be a useful tool. Unfortunately, adding this feature is not on the project list for this year.
  
  I noticed you have posted this as a feature request as well - thank you for that. Your input helps create the roadmap for future projects at Gaia GPS.

  Has USNG made it to the project list yet? I see it was asked about 6yrs ago. I just got the app to use with our USAR team but we use USNG.
