If I follow your example, yes. But that assumes there is only one
timeline's WAL files in your pg_xlog. It could get more complex in that
situation because you could be in any of the timelines.

But, if you know which timeline you're in, then yes, the file after the
latest file in archive_status is the current WAl file.

It might be interesting to submit your script to put into contrib?
