Any hope of having one some day?I suspect simply because nobody has packaged one, and somebody has to do the work to make it available. I doubt anyone would object to you submitting an Intent To Package per https://cygwin.com/setup.html.If that's the only reason, I could certainly look at packaging it. I guess I'd like to hear from Marco first though, the gnupg maintainer, to tell us if there isn't some other reason.
for what I know gpg-agent belongs to GnuPG > 2.0 while we have only the classic gnupg-1.4.19 If I remember right GnuPG > 2.0 requires memory protection features that do not exist on cygwin. But I could be wrong.
