Tor versions of Tor nodes should be accessible through ControlPort

If extra torrc options (such as FetchUselessDescriptors) are not used, Tor's ControlPort commands GETINFO ns/id/FINGERPINT and GETINFO ns/name/nickname do not print Tor versions of the corresponding nodes. Their versions still can be read from a file /var/lib/tor/cached-microdesc-consensus (lines v Tor x.x.x.x) directly, but I cannot see any reason why applications cannot learn them from ControlPort too. Also, I didn't find other ControlPort commands which print these Tor versions.

This problem [disccused] in relation to Nyx:

Inverse situation is with Tor version: it is shown in /var/lib/tor/cached-microdesc-consensus but Nyx does not show it in information about relays (connections window). Can relay's Tor version be learned from ControlPort too?
