So I see what you are doing, however I don't think this adds much value. Many of the key registers for the device are not simple Read/Write registers. Most of them are things like write 1 to clear or some other sort of value where writing doesn't set the bit but has some other side effect. Just take a look through the Datasheet at registers such as the VFCTRL, VFMAILBOX, or most of the interrupt registers. The fact is simply storing the values off doesn't give you any real idea of what the state of things are.
