Get "Metadata Status" via the SDK

A small question for the experts.

Is it possible to get "Metadata Status" via the SDK?

Metadata Status is available as tagset but I can't figure out how to get it.

The only way, which the Any Filter plugin uses, is to use catalog:findPhotos(), which uses the same mechanism internally as smart collections:

catalog:findPhotos {searchDesc = {
    criteria = "metadataStatus", 
    operation = "==", 
    value = "changedOnDisk"}}

It's very fast, even on large catalogs.
