Does the SCM permit commits that are not tied to a bug\feature request?

Yes, I am aware that the wix generator is part of version 2.8.11.*. 
The feature I would like is called "CPackWIX: Add support for custom WiX templates" and has commit hash bf23891942d95a4075f349f6c4043647d47e546b.
The commit appears to be included in all major branches;
$ git branch --contains bf23891942d95a4075f349f6c4043647d47e546b  master  remotes/origin/master* remotes/origin/mastert  remotes/origin/next  remotes/origin/release
However, I just found it odd that I could not find it mentioned in the roadmap. Hence the post.

Thought so. Anyone have a ballpark estimate?
