The information is returned as part of the status (see ESC f, FS F). I was thinking along the lines of a boolean option to let the frontend say whether the automatically detected paper size should be used to set the scan area (overriding whatever scan area was set manually). In case autodetection fails for some reason (like not being supported for example), I am considering falling back to manual settings, if any, and the full scan area if all else fails.
