how to read idf files

Apparently from the Circuitworks brochure there is an IDF 4.0 format. From what I am reading it can actually pull in traces and copper. Kinda cool...
I would like to check it out further to see if one can insert parasitics and actually create simulation models from data.

The problem is that none of the major ECAD vendors are supporting 4.0 (https://www.priware.com/Common/Systems.aspx). Are any of the MCAD vendors?
