Thank you so much for this great package. I am curious about whether there are plans to include additional datasets from the ACS that provide estimates by population group, as detailed race/ethnicity and combinations of race/ethnicity such as "Black or African American Alone, not Hispanic or Latino" for various characteristics are often unavailable from the ACS datasets currently supported by the package. In particular, the datasets of interest are "selected population profiles (spp)" from the ACS 1-year data, and "selected population detailed tables (spt)" & "selected population data profiles (sptprofile)" from the ACS 5-year data in 2021, 2015, and 2010. The ability to access these data by popgroup via tidycensus would be very helpful for those looking into racial and ethnic disparities across various characteristics!
