Spot diagram raw data (where is it?)

I have an application in which I would really like to have access to the raw spot diagram data, both with and without surface scattering.  This includes the ray spatial coordinates as well as their direction cosine coordinates.  Not sure why it is not available from the analysis window -- seems like a rather basic aspect.  In any event, it would be nice if the datagrids were exposed in the ZOS-API. 

On a related note, I can certainly trace rays to programmatically create a spot diagram (similar to Example 22), but with IBatchRayTrace, which mimics the old DDE Extensions for sequential batch ray tracing, there is no option to include surface scattering.  So, adding a boolean switch for scattering would also be helpful!
