query re: compatibility with symfony/console:^5

[SignpostMarv]

I've a general preference for using composer require --dev rather than using global installs/phar builds.

Are there any plans to nudge up compatibility with symfony/console, i.e. symfony/console:^4.0|^5.0 ?

Ideally you would use the phar for a global install. I can take a look at bumping these though

[SignpostMarv]

I've a general preference for not installing things globally, which can at times get a little troublesome when upstream dependencies (like symfony/console) get updated :s

This would have been a great addition to v2.2.0

Seems it not work.
composer.json

{
    "require": {
        "symfony/console": "^5.0"
    }
}

$ composer require --dev povils/phpmnd
