Since it's a Grumman product any further development on Hellcat variants is off limits.

Not a taboo question, but I don't know. Some modders don't like DT. Other modders appear to have lost interest in the game and have moved on.

That's a rare bird! Variants were used in combat by Netherlands and Iraq with minimal success. Other variants were ordered by Sweden, Argentina, Peru and other nations but never used in combat. Another variant was ordered by France but arrived too late, so the French order was taken over by the RAF and then the RCAF, which used it as a trainer.
I guess it could be used as a hack for similar hapless, single-engined attack bomber types, such as the CW-22 and A-27.
Since there are surviving A-17s, theoretically there is sufficient data to add the plane to the game. But, consider that if you're asking for someone to spend several hundred of hours building a 3d model, wouldn't you want the same effort to go into a more common plane, or at least one which more development potential or played a more critical role in the war?
