In short, no. I wouldn't want to do this for several reasons. First, making things more complicated means the cost will go up. Second, not everyone needs or wants these extra features. For example, I already have a cold air intake from a duct under the bumper to my BMC carbon airbox.
Of course, anyone who purchases a hood is welcome to modify it to whatever extent they want...
Another thought...even doing the grille for the cabin air intake may complicate things too much. I noticed a carbon GC8 Impreza hood the other day that did not have the scoop or vents 'cast' into it.
I'll have to wait and see what the carbon guy says about the 900 hood. If it's too complicated to do the grille, then there may just be a hole there, and everyone would have to add their own mesh or grille or whatever.
