Isn't this the documentation for it:

  https://www.roundup-tracker.org/docs/rest.html#retrieve-item-using-key-value

We do warn that the short form (/data/status/open) doesn't work for
numbers (it's interprested as an id) and may not be supported in
future versions of the API.

Testing yes. But I think it's already doc'ed (although I did forget
about that option).
