Maybe I am not understanding what you are saying but if you open a part in the parts editor and go the metadata tab and make sure each part has the same family name and a different variant name you do get a part with different variants in the inspector under the variant field. Or at least when I have added to an existing family like the ESP8266 it has shown up in the variant field. I also used a test point as the base to create exposed copper artwork and the test point now shows 51 variants, oops (I should give them their own family).
