David,
Duly noted - these are good suggestions. You're talking about beefing up
the API considerably to offer the information you want below, not
impossible, but won't be happening over night.
As for polling - we poll daily to the registry to get updates on transfer
statuses, we expect you to be kind and only do this once or twice a day on
off peak hours for reconciling your own systems and keeping them up to
date.
