getting the name of the live set

i'm wondering how one can access the name of the live set through the live api. i've tried get_document on the live app path but it returns an id that i can't get a name from. earlier posts on here seem inconclusive?

I don't see anything re: getting the Set name in the official Max 8 LOM, nor the programmatically-generated Live 11.0.0 API docs.

If you've never seen anyone else access the Set name via the API, I think it's safe to say that this just isn't possible right now. I'd love to be wrong, but evidence at-hands suggest the answer is currently "no".

Is it true that there's no asterix displayed in the window title on Mac if the window is dirty (set has been changed)?
