Right now in snd_use_case_geti you cannot tell if the item being queried exists or not when being checked. This also means the only way to check for the existence of something in the client of the library is to iterate over the list of mods/devs even if we know exactly the name we are looking for. We have functions that do exactly this internally so lets return this information in a logical fashion through geti.
The device_status/modifier_status functions are used internally, too. I would add the device validation only to the geti code. The other parts do this job already and expect just 0 or 1 return values.

Understood, I will move it back to geti directly, figured this was the cleanest place to put it but that makes sense if other places use those internal functions.
