Before this can be added to the main calibre codebase, there needs to be some way to identify that the connected device is a PW and not say, a Touch. Unfortunately, Amazon, in its infite wisdom, decided to use the same USB ids for all the devices. IIRC, it is possible to identify the model of the kindle from the serial number, but the serial number is only available to the calibre driver system on os x and linux, not on windows, so some other technique will have to be used. Not possesing a PW, I cant come up with that...
