This isn’t a good place to request feature enhancements.  There isn’t an issue with the documentation - the program doesn’t provide multiple conditional exit codes.

Post a patch to -hackers or a feature request to -general (mailing list).

Absolutely right, that's the best way to propose new (or changes to) features.

doesn't document its different return values either which seems like an
oversight.
