I am nervous I am going to get myself in trouble, but Jennifer Slegg's tweets are pretty accurate and while covering Google's Gary Illyes keynote at PubCon, she said Gary said in his presentation that the index status and crawl status reports within the Google Search Console will be getting more accurate, faster and more useful.
She posted this on Twitter:
Coming inGSC: index status and crawl status... make it faster, more accurate and more useful, and include examples. @methode #pubcon
