[j-nsp] DOM: SNMP polling of RX power for 1 GE SFP impossible?

Hello, 

I would like to monitor with Nagios and graph the power received by
the optical transceivers (MX240 + DPCE-R, MX80).

My understanding of the situation is: 

- digital optic monitoring is available on both 1 GE SFP and 10 GE XFP
  transceivers

- the CLI command
      show interfaces diagnostics optics ge-1/0/0 | match Receiver
  works for both 1 and 10 GE

- starting with 10.4, the DOM MIB [1] is *only* for 10 GE XFP

So there is no way to poll by SNMP the power for 1 G SFP. Strange. 

And one have to handcraft a little shell script to ssh the CLI command
above to get the value.

Am I wrong? I hope yes.
