[strongSwan] Can charon pass through unknown EAP methods with eap-radius authentication?

Hello,
I am currently testing the server-side support of EAP authentication by
charon.
I could see that it supports the following methods: eap-aka, eap-sim,
eap-gtc, eap-md5, eap-mschapv2 and eap-radius. I also read that
vendor-specific methods can be specified in the form eap-type-vendor
(but I don't really understand how vendor-specific methods could be used
without extending charon).
I successfully tested the support of eap-radius (the authentication
method between the client and radius server was MD5).
I am wondering if the eap-radius "method" will pass through EAP
exchanges between the client and radius server when the EAP method used
by the client and radius server is not supported by charon.

IKEv2 IKEv2
client =========== server ---
(charon)
Typically, I would like to use the EAP-TLS and EAP-FRAP methods, that
are not supported by charon for now.
I tried to browse the code of eap_authentifier, but I didn't find the
answer...
Thanks for your help,
Christophe.
