Some of the fields recently added to /proc/meminfo are very dependent on the internal of the memory management of the kernel, I don't think it's good idea to make them part of the user<->kernel API because there are alteratvive algorithms that won't generate those numbers and that can generate different ones. I understand the interest in collecting the new data for debugging the behaviour of the MM but a few line of perl are enough to do that.
