If you want to implement an interactive AI ATC function,
that would be great.    

In the meantime, I am reminded of the proverb:  Don't
let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

There is already a method
  apt->getActiveRunwayForUsage()->ident()
for determining the active runway.  There is already
code in tower.cxx that uses this.  It seems to me
that the landing clearance generated by tower.cxx 
could use the already-available information in a much 
more realistic way.  We're not talking about rocket 
surgery.
