Building Materials and Objects

The new Building Materials in ArchiCAD 17 is great. We are now redeveloping whole new methods and improved processes and systems thanks to this advancement. However....

Why wasn't this implemented across all elements?

Why did walls, slabs, roofs, beams, columns, meshes get the new attributes while objects, doors and windows have missed out?
