At this time, it appears that Sidechain functions are only available to compressors on the Fat Channel for our inputs, but it would be a nice option to add to the compressors on our Mix buses or FX Return buses, so we could do things like sidechain a vocal channel or bus to a delay/reverb for added clarity.

I also added a request saying the same thing before seeing this one.  This is a very useful feature specifically to duck a stereo instrument bus under a stereo vocal bus allowing the vocals to pop right out of the mix.  This strategy is used by very high profile live mixing engineers and it would be a simple add to the next firmware update.
