Arca Swiss compatible foot for RF 24-105mm f2.8 Z

It appears to be too early since the lens is only out in limited quantities but I have the new RF 24-105mm f2.8 Z lens and am looking for a replacement foot that is Arca Swiss compatible.  It is ridiculous to have to add a plate to a lens tripod collar foot to get that compatibility when it could easily be incorporated into the collar foot's design.  Fortunately, for the 24-105, that foot can be removed.  I'm sure the intent is to remove it when you don't need it but it opens up the possibility of a replacement foot.  I'd buy it from Canon if they offered it as an optional accessory.  The collar itself isn't removable so it must be a replacement foot.  If anyone comes across one, please post a reply to this thread.  I expect there to be one eventually; i.e., like the third party replacement collars that are available for the RF 100-500mm lens.  Again, Canon if you're listening, you're missing an opportunity to sell an accessory!  I'm not the only person out there that uses Arca Swiss quick release plates...

Currenly using R5, R5 mark II, and R7 mostly plus a variety of Canon RF and EF lens...

I like using my Wimberley gimbal head for a lot of photography and even video work depending on what I anm doing -  and had an extra P10 attachment and it fit perfectly.  I am going to go with the Wimberley P20 as a slightly longer plate and I like have the stops build into the plate.  https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/205334-REG/Wimberley_P_20_P20_Quick_Release_Plate.html
