    This would be a good idea of it was reliable however browsing the parsed data for the BMP280 [1] (which in familiar with because I’ve written a driver for this) it looks like it misses a bunch of registers [2]

      I looked over this datasheet. It appears what is in the datasheet was parsed. Looking over section 4.3 which goes over the registers, all of them seem to be captured. What missing registers were you referring to ?

    It would be nice if vendors just provided a header file...

    If DigiKey or Octopart had their act together they'd create a subscription service for $1/month or something like that and offer compiled maps for every part they carry.

      if the logic houses had their act together they would publish this in a standard metadata format to begin with, and derive documentation from that.
