You could always just install a recessed door sensor if you are working with an existing wood or composite door. One could be installed at the top of each door, and you could use some logic within WebCoRE change a virtual door status (both closed > v_door is closed, otherwise door is open).
I have encountered the multi-point hardware a few times and I share your frustration. Even worse is the funky handshake between the door handle and lock that you have to learn to lock the door. I understand the added security of a multipoint lock, but they need to devise a solution that can integrate with home automation solutions. Otherwise some people will start removing these doors and go back to standard doors that can utilize a smart lock.
