This would be pretty great, it's also the source of a lot of tooltip scanning.
To quote Guill (Which is of course in no way a promise of anything):
Getting the static bind type (i.e. BoP vs. BoE vs BoA) should definitely be possible. Getting the current bind status is a little more difficult

To add, if it's possible to abstract the soulbound check out of the tooltip and make it available, it'd still be a good thing - mods that want to know will still render the
whole tooltip, then scan it.
This isn't really a performance issue in many places, but it's pretty bad in some common ones, like sorting in bag addons that use virtual groups instead of bags directly.
Edit: Apparently static bind type will be a return value of GetItemInfo Soon(tm), so that's great!
