Well yeah - you'd need to write that native code wrapper, which kind of defeats some of the purpose of React Native (not having to write native code).

As a user, I suppose it is disappointing there aren't bindings for _everything_ offered on the native platforms. However, there are a ton of packages provided by the community, especially since the "slim core" initiative from Facebook is pretty much done. They removed almost everything not essential from the core or React Native to make it much more focused and I suppose easy to maintain.
