Rare tenses

Will there ever be lessons about the seldom used tenses and what they are actually meant to do? Like the subjunctive imperfect, past anterior etc. I know that you don't use them in every day speech and rarely if ever in writing, but I'd like to see them in the future...maybe even in a new C2 section.
