Source: TODO.md §3 (at 5695061)

There is no way to ask who owns a status, or to enumerate reservations. The
"coordinate ranges at the dependency-stack level" advice in UPGRADING.md
therefore has no tooling behind it.

A read-only accessor plus a dump through akerr_log_method would let a startup
self-check or a CI job print the whole map for a linked stack.

Cheap, additive, and the natural next step for multi-component adoption --
which is exactly the situation the libakgl/libakstdlib/akbasic stack is already
in.
