SE (or rather Yoshi-P) had always publicly approved of add-ons, and specifically said that when they worked on ARR, the UI scripting engine was completely overhauled to accommodate user-made custom UIs. After 2.0 launch, little have been revealed about the add-on system, but what had been said about it was never "considering it", but "working on it".

At the very least, the concept for FFXIV add-ons is one focused on customizing the UI, with certain (but limited) information not presented in the default UI but available for custom UIs to expose. That info probably will not include damage log numbers, however, as is evident from Yoshi-P's stance on dps meters.
