As many of you may know, the fact that "\_msearch" does not support the same headers as "\_search" command has been a thing for a long time and I personally have wanted this issue to be fixed asap.  
Today I read a couple of topics and discussions in the ES GitHub page ([#35851](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/35851), [#4227](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/4227))about this and it looks like some contributors have already [committed a bunch of changes](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/commit/ca9b2b993167ed6fa6e71fe9d04ae1050508ce18) in order to fix this problem.  
After all, I am still not able to use parameters like "\_source" and "stored\_fields" in my "\_msearch" request (not to mention my elasic+kibana version is 7.8 which is the latest version to this day I suppose).  
I would like to know about what is the exact situation with fixing this problem.
