No, I’m afraid. At this point I think it’s quite unlikely that it will be implemented. People have generally been able to work around it by using multiple files inside one payload instead, and then modify Update Modules to cope with that.

In the [new C++ rewrite](https://hub.mender.io/t/mender-to-rewrite-client-using-c-and-retain-go-for-its-backend/5332), the rootfs installer will be an Update Module, so it will be easier to modify it if you need to combine rootfs updates with other files inside one artifact.
