Description
We could implement a new cmdlet that checks the gallery status (possibly from github so we can have a current report of any issues), or a -CurrentStatus parameter for Get-PSResourceRepository PSGallery that both pulls the repo information from the stored xml and then fetches status.

Research direction
Start at the Get-PSResourceRepository entry point and compare the proposed new status cmdlet with a -CurrentStatus parameter for PSGallery. Determine how stored XML repository information and a current GitHub-based status report should be combined; done means one clearly defined interface reports the current PSGallery status.
