   My understanding is Yes, Eventually:tm:.

   IMO, this is likely to build off the work started in #1621. Stay tuned for a full RFC laying out the general shape of the vision on this and related features. As a sneak peek, my expectation is that we'll probably end up going:

   1. Geometric primitives
   2. Debug drawing (Debug Draw #1625), built off the geometric primitives, to actually render the geometric primitives
   3. More customization options for the debug drawing
   4. A bevy_shapes subcrate that uses these same geometric primitive options to create nice APIs for drawing other polygons and line types in 2D and 3D

   No, 0.5 is getting wrapped up as we speak, I'd expect it to release next week.

   Primitives (#1621) will need an RFC first as it's pretty fundamental to the engine. I would expect primitives and debug to make it into 0.6.
