Make the magnetometer/compass data available to watch faces without starting an activity

In a watch face when using the magnetormeter/compass data through Activity.getActivityInfo().currentHeading and Position.getInfo().heading the data is only updated when starting an activity or for some time after accessing the compass widget.

I'm wondering if this is done deliberately for example to save battery of if this is something that can be changed.

I do ask for this function as a garmin customer using a quatix 7x and a plotter in the boat for a long time. I have always used the garmin maps and continue today with the sports watches.
