Yakov,

If the need for the loop back address is to establish a router ID then, the management interface could be used for the same purpose or a sub-interface.

You are right, loop back interface is not supported on the ASA. If you have an account team that you work with, I suggest that you reach out to them and see what they could do regarding this request.
