TDP support for Microsoft SQL Server Express

We have several customer with a mix of Microsoft SQL Server 2005/2008/2012 and editions express, standard and enterprise.
To keep it simple we are using tdp to backup the sql servers. Sadly SQL Server Express isn't supported.
It looks like the backups are running fine, we have tested scheduled backups and they are working with no errors. The only problem is the "protect and recover" in gui, no databases are showing.

    This is a recognized requirement and a solution appears to be desirable. 
    Based on various discussions that's going on so far, it's unlikely we will be able to provide the requested function within the next two releases so we will have to reject the RFE
