Add spent_hours to /issues/index API

Description
I'm trying to import redmine tasks into Microsoft Project through REST API.
I need "time spent" info for tasks to update the remaining time properly in MSP plan.
can we add the corresponding API ?

I haven't looked at the redmine database structure, but I believe adding this info into basic/default data packet sent by Redmine REST API can slow down the system because it would require SQL select from several tables.
maybe we could introduce a special parameter for REST API to indicate that additional info should be added to the data structure? this way we can keep the default data format intact and only add extra fields (by running more expensive SQL queries) only when needed

spent_hours is already present in /issues/1.xml

Jean-Philippe, is there a way to add that information to "issues list" response as well (let's say, if some additional parameter is provided in the request). The reason I'm asking about this - it would be very ineffective to load data from Redmine to an external system (like Microsoft Project ) this way. If I export 500 tasks, I'd have to perform 500 additional requests to get the "time spent" info for every task being exported.
I'm currently working on a system, which automatically generates Microsoft Project (MSP) files from the real data stored in Redmine. This way we can reuse all possible reports provided by MSP.

I'm working with Alexey on the system.
And one of our customers asked for this ability.
Could you, plz, implement this feature?

Do you need this: http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Rest_TimeEntries
If so, I think this issue could be closed.

no, the point was to include time info into "get issues" response so that the client code won't need to perform dozens or hundreds of extra requests after receiving a list of issues. we already implemented the import, so I don't really care that much.

I'm removing due date as this one still needs some further investigation.

- When selecting issues via a query like this
http://myhost/redmine/issues.json?cf_7=42, thespent_hoursinformation is missing - But wenn I ask for a single issue details directly via
http://myhost/redmine/issues/1234.json, thespent_hoursinformation is provided
I'm using Redmine version 2.3.1.stable on Ruby version 1.9.3 (x86_64-linux) with Rails version 3.2.13 (Database adapter Mysql2).
Beside some other plugins, I'm using "redmine_spent_time 2.5.0"
