So basically the object model of osgeo::proj::metadata::Extent should likely be extended with a shortName() getter (the corresponding GeoAPI class that serves as the inspiration, http://www.geoapi.org/3.0/javadoc/org.opengis.geoapi/org/opengis/metadata/extent/Extent.html, has a single getDescription()), a C binding to get it (likely proj_get_area_of_use_ex2()), and AuthorityFactory::Private::createPropertiesSearchUsages() be modified to populate it.

Alternatively if the short area name can be seen as an identifier, then in ISO 19115 model it can be a GeographicDescription. That description can then be included among the values returned by Extent.getGeographicElements().

Note: EPSG defines domain of validity not only by bounding boxes or by names, but also by polygons stored as Shapefile. The latter could be returned by BoundingPolygon in ISO 19115 model. Said otherwise, Extent.getGeographicElements() allows to specify an area of validity in different ways:

 * By identifier
 * By bounding box
 * By bounding polygon

Those 3 ways can be made available together.
