I indeed would not hold my breath. Tidal is not likely to license their software "unfolding" to Logitech for free. Even less likely: any of us paying for it. :-) We're a notoriously cheap and DIY-oriented bunch. So unfolding is unlikely. And I'm not even certain @mherger can implement bit perfect raw MQA pass-through without a license or technical support from Tidal, but even if he did then it would only be useful to those who own MQA-decoding DACs capable of doing all unfolding in their own firmware. The other ideas you've mentioned will not work with LMS as far as I know, but I'll leave it to others smarter than me to comment.

Hi-Res streaming up to 24/192 without any decoding required. The Qobuz plug-in for LMS works well. Qobuz is stronger in classical and jazz than other genres, and their catalogs are more complete in some countries than others, so I suggest you trial the service to discover if they have the music you want. I currently subscribe to both Tidal and Qobuz, but I expect to be done with Tidal at some point.
