As someone who's been trying to get into the PayPal platform program (PPCP) for nearly two years now, I almost had a stroke reading this headline thinking I could have all along just committed to Stripe and received the same functionality in my product.
Beyond the fact that this is EU only, it does seem like ON_BEHALF_OF will probably never be supported considering PayPal would be directly feeding their competitor with the same functionality that their own platform offers.
