I'm not sure I really understand the use case here, but regardless, this
should not be added to STATUS. If there is some reasonable use cases
where external components need to look at the values they have set
themselves (sounds a bit strange..) or some other external component has
set (a bit more reasonable use case, I guess), the GET command would be
the one to extend.
