stamping tools including deformation like Autoform?

Hello, can we deal with stamping metal sheet inside onshape. Sounds like the rolls Royce for such work is called autoform plus as well as dynaform.
As Solidworks can't deal with it (the stamp forming doesn't works like a bolean without taking into account the material stretching),

@besseas_laurent, Currently in Onshape sheetmetal functionality itself is missing. Sheetmetal is an absolute must have feature, huge gains for manufactures can be made from a good sheetmetal package.  In near future we hope that this facility will be provided by Onshape sooner.

I don't think this is something we will see as core functionality within Onshape but I am sure something could be developed using feature script. Another option would be for the likes of Autoform or Dyna-bend to become Technology Partners with addon's that can be purchased from the app store. I see Autoform is partnered with Catia and NX so it would be similar with Onshape. @joe_dunne is the partner liaison.
