Can M2 Threads be added to the hole tool?

I'm a model engineer just getting started with Onshape, and aside from the steep learning curve associated with 3D CAD, I'm find the program amazing. However, for model engineers, the range of standard threads available in the hole tool is a bit limited. I realise that model engineers are unlikely to take out a subscription, and therefore our needs are going to come low down the priority list, but adding BA, ME and the small metric thread sizes to the hole tool would be incredibly useful.
On the subject of subscriptions, I would be willing to pay a smaller, non commercial monthly fee for more storage space and the kind of features more useful to the hobbyist, such as my suggestions above. It seems the current fee structure is all or nothing, and beyond the means of the hobbyist.

The main issue is to have the, manually edited (?), thread-dimensions stored with the parts in the PartStudio to have them afterwards available in the drawing.
