I would hope SpaceX and Blue Origin would have think-tanks planning out these things, after all once you have a shit tonne of re-usable rockets waiting for customers you may as well put them to work. Problem I see is robotics, nobody wants to go to the effort to put up a space miner with all the human problems so all the work is focusing on robotics that could do this, however this is something that could ramp up quickly into a race once someone starts making a concerted effort or books some flights as the payoffs are enormous for the winner and Humanity.
