James Newton may happen upon this question and perhaps be able to provide an answer. But I would guess that there just isn't a significant market for it anymore, since it isn't supported under D11. Anyone who uses pre-D11 versions that needs it probably already has it. Since there is no plan to rewrite it to make it D11 compatible, its basically a dead product.

I love Director, but this has long been one of my rants, that it didn't come with this. Authorware did, but that is a dead product as well.

If they don't plan to sell it any more, and don't plan to update it, I wonder if they would consider making it free and/or open source?
