FYI, I believe Damaged Soul is looking into implementing this. However, it is probable you won't see it in 1.75.

Hmm, yes, I don't see this making it into the 1.75 release unless someone already knows the offsets and how to decode the data at those offsets. I'm still working on this. It's likely going to be expanded a bit into something called get_user_objectiveitem or something like that though.

Anyways, I've found the offset for determining if a player is holding any objective item, such as the flag or the keycard in the rock2 map. But then there is another offset that holds data that is obviously a bitmask which I would think gives more information on what type of objective item a player is holding. I'm not 100% certain this particular offset is the correct one to look at, but it sure seems like.

(If anyone wants to help me out on this: Offset #26 is set to 1 whenever a player is holding an objective item and set to 0 if not. The other offset that needs to be figured out is #260)

This has finally been added to SVN revision 2963.

Code:

native tfc_get_user_goalitem(index, &team)

I used "goalitem" because it isn't exclusive to flags. It can be use for any goal related item such as the keycards in rock2. Team is a byref parameter that will hold the team(s) that own the goal item.
