Just to mention, I'm using JavaHL. So I guess I don't have access to the
single status API at all?
Either way, I've now worked around the problem by manually comparing the
expected URL (using the parent URL which I always know in my case)
against the actual URL and deriving the 'switched' state from this
comparison. So no problem to wait for an API change in a future release.
