I don't think that capability exists, but was mainly left out because it
wasn't used before.  Shouldn't be too hard to add that.  My suggestion
for an implementation would be to return a dict with key values pairs
like:

getStatus (void) returns:  a{sv}
  ssid (ay), bssid (ay), id_str (s), state (s)

And of course since it's a dict, can add more stuff later.
