The new API call doesn't let you do anything you couldn't do before
with minimum effort.  Therefore it isn't that important when compared
to actual new features, things that let you do something you couldn't
do before.  That doesn't mean I wouldn't support it being included.
It's on the list of things to consider for 2.3 and my gut instinct is
that some form of the method will merit inclusion -- it has a good
benefit to complexity ratio.  :)
