Current Situation / Problem
3rd party plugins cannot find out which model a rendered plane uses.
There is a use case at least for the camera plugin ABC, which asks for a value similar to what LTAPI returns through LTAPIAircraft::getCslModel().
Benefits
Use cases are probably limited...but at least ABC has what it asks for. It somehow uses it to fine-tune the camera per displayed model.
Additional context Discussed in a support thread in the context of the Remote Client. The solution will be generic for XPMP2, however, ie. for any plugin based on XPMP2.

.Suggested Solution
Extend the already existing set of shared dataRefs:
sim/multiplayer/position/plane#_cslModel
filled withXPMP2::Aircraft::GetModelName()
