Using altitude in Geocoder

Is there a way to include the altitude when finding address from coordinate? There seems to only have the constructor

List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude,longitude,maxResults);

I don't know much about cartology. But since Google gives me the altitude in Location, I imagine it's important for accuracy.

No. (Latitude,longitude) already uniquely identifies a point on earth's surface, and the geocoder would not return indoor information such as floor number for multi-storey buildings (yet). So there is no point for providing the altitude for reverse-geocoding.
