I understand. I'm trying to solve the inconsistency of being editing a document on split window but having the status bar showing something else (Should I open a issue to report this bug?). So, yes, you can take this as a request for the API :)
I haven't ever doxygened anything. But would it be enough for getting added it to the API just adding doxygen comments to it? I want to test that the function is suitable for the purpose I want it for, before sending a PR for getting it into the API.
