It was teased in a video or image a long time ago (for Snapmaker 2.0):

Unfortunately nothing was heard of it since. You can always do what I did and make one yourself :

Future addon updates - Rotary Encoder

I went the DIY route and put together a simple rotary encoder unit myself: Unfortunately I cannot connect it directly through to the serial port on the Snapmaker, since no 5V is provided on the USB connector. I have to bridge the two serial ports on my PC.
