[metapost] Can luamplib inherit the -recorder option from luatex?

Sometimes it's useful to have a list of all the files used in compiling a Metapost drawing. From my observations of making MP graphics using this template
\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{luamplib}
\begin{document}
\begin{mplibcode}
beginfig(1);
endfig;
\end{mplibcode}
\end{document}
and running `lualatex` with the `-recorder` option, I find that `lualatex` produces a .fls file that shows all the files that lualatex loaded at the TeX level but that does *not* show any files that are included with an MP `input` command inside the mplibcode block.
Is there some option to make `luamplib` pass on the input and output file names to the "parent" process?
Could this be enabled as an option?
thanks, Toby
