Is there anyway to add custom "Backgrounds"?

Hello, I have been messing around in the editor, adding custom races, skills,classes, etc etc for my custom campaign world. However one feature that i also have is starting optional "backgrounds" that people can select if they want to get a bit of backstory to their character (which also brings with it stat bonuses and penalties aswell as other differences). If i check the unearthed arcana optional rule i get traits and flaws, its close, but its not exactly the thing i had in mind. I just want there to be an extra "backgrounds menu" isntead of the traits and flaws, where players can select from different "backgrounds", much like traits. It would also be nice if the description on the background selected got copy pasted into the background info on the character sheet.

I have been searching high and low, but haven`t really found a way to do this in hero labs, I have a custom "source" which when selected do all the changes i want to pathfinder without messing with the original pathfinder stuff.

Is there a way for me to implement this? if so i would be greatfull for any advice on how to do so!
 
If you select the "Pathfinder Society Content (no restrictions)" option (2nd item from the top), you'll see that a faction selection option has been added to the Background tab. I'll be adding a new source that allows that option without adding the rest of the Pathfinder Society material, and adding a Factions/Backgrounds tab to the editor so users can add new ones.

So, this capability is coming soon.
