Sure.

It's simply not been a priority for anyone working on the code so far :/

We'd be very happy to receive and merge related patches.  The most
"proper" way to do it in line with the specs is to implement the "Common
ID" procedure where the MSC informs the BSC of the IMSI very early after
establishing the SCCP connection.  If that's implemented in both OsmoMSC
and OsmoBSC, it would work reliably at least for this most common use
case.
