Will OMP ever include support for UPNP servers like the original Media player?

I ask as unless I have extremely low bandwidth videos, the stock media player will play a few seconds, and them buffer, and play few seconds and then buffer some more. If I copy the video to the N900 then it plays perfectly, and stream happily in Mediabox from the same upnp server.

I prefer the interface of the stock player though, and would like to have a one-stop shop for all my media if possible.
