I don't use sr-speedbar but yes, it should come with
that, otherwise it is bad. Make a search with
`apropos' and perhaps `apropos-value' (with the buffer
name as the value).
If it isn't there you could ask the speedbar people
where it is.
As a last effort you can fetch the data which
I suppose is found in the speedbar buffer -
`thing-at-point' - and reconstruct the complete data
that way.
But I'd consider that a secondary plan because those
operations are always error-prone. They are considered
hacks, probably for good reasons. The only case when
they are the exact right thing to do is when they
work flawlessly!
