I think your best bet for getting this functionality is to submit patches upstream, and I'm sure people will work with you to get them accepted.
Agreed with dave, tracking this in bugzilla isn't going to generate any results. There's many unimplemented APIs across the drivers. Closing as DEFERRED; someone just needs to provide a patch
