Exactly.  To my mind, the *entire* point of this patch is to remove the
need for people to try to dig information out of potentially-localized
message strings.  It's not clear to me that we have to strain to provide
information that isn't in the currently-reported messages --- we are
only trying to make it easier for client-side code to extract the
information it's likely to need.
