It would be very useful to be able to tell the friendly license name (e.g. MIT or Apache 2.0) from the NuGet management API .

VS and the NuGet gallery know how to do this since 2013:

Might be related to #110.

The original issue #110 is closed as deprecated which happened more than 2 years ago. I'll try n get the reasoning behind it.

After posting this I realized the friendly name is no longer present, not in the web nor in the VS gallery. So I guess the friendly license feature itself was deprecated. The following issue is probably its replacement (and would be much better if implemented since no heuristic would be involved): #4628.

We've moved #4628 into the backlog (with no priority currently). As such, closing this one. Thanks for input.
