Would you do that or would you use HTTP status to indicate pending?

Adding the literal string 'pending: 1' adds pointless cruft to every
message over the network forever after.

IIIC it's only once that we have the background "Wait for creation"
situation...

204 / 418 would be my suggested Appropriate Responses.
