That can be added on later when/if we add support for mapping pins to userspace. If you know you want to give it to userspace and how to set it up properly you certainly know what to name it too, so for pins explicitly exported to userspace we need a mechanism to name them and export them explicitly (without having userspace exporting them to itself with that brain-damaged sysfs interface).
