Faithful, as Oldski already said, this feature is planned. Adding an option to gift games before holidays would be very cool and I know that many GOG.com Users (including me :) would love it.
Now, currently the team is working on lots of stuff - both new games and website features, lots of stuff is going on :). So while I cannot give you a straight yes/no answer, I can say that we'll do our best!
