Fiducial marker support for object tracking

We're developing an app in Unity for the Quest 3 that accurately tracks the positions of the controllers. We need to identify the location of the controllers in relation to an object and would like to include fiducial markers on the object for this task. 

I get the privacy aspect of not allowing camera access to apps, but surely providing anonymous fiducial marker tracking would enable a large new range of applications without jeopardizing privacy. 

For our app, we would like to be able to track very small fiducials such as <5mm shapes rather than the large QR code printouts, so that we can physically place them on a small object. 

Anything applicable on the roadmap? 

We are looking at other headset solutions, but it would be great if we can do it on the Quest 3.

They're giving access to passthrough video "soon"

From observing the passthrough quality, I doubt the Quest 3 cameras can pick up on any small details beyond an arm's length, especially optical markers that are only half a centimeter in size. Unless, of course, the markers are IR LEDs--but that's another tracking system altogether.
