Will SW use magnetic north for compasses?

It is a lot more complicated to have the magnetic north modeled, no doubt. Since there is a good bit of variation that changes as one moves east to west. Anyone know if SOW will use magnetic or true north??

I'd love to see this feature also. X-plane has it, though without time variation IIRC. IMO it's good enough.
