why no gpg-agent for Cygwin?

As long as I've been using Cygwin, there's been no gpg-agent packaged with
gnupg. I've always assumed this is for some good reason, like the insecure
memory warning I get when I enter a passphrase. But I don't exactly know,
and I can't find any information about it.
So, why isn't there a gpg-agent for Cygwin? Any hope of having one some
day?
Thanks,
Andrew
