Get company info by passing SEC File Number #1

Any chance of getting the ability to use an SEC File Number to lookup company information? I am working with lists from the SEC that only contain File Numbers and not CIKs. I need to lookup the CIK using the File Number.

Unfortunately this is not possible with edgar R package as it is built on the hierarchy and data available on EDGAR sever. To get SEC file number you need to parse individual files.
