Topic: Conditional measures / disintegration

I see there is docs#MeasureTheory.Measure.condKernel, but does it easily imply in the existence of conditional measures as generally as written in Bogachev below? If not, is this theorem desirable for mathlib if I'm willing to write it and contribute? (this is the most general statement of the "Rokhlin disintegration" that I know).

10.4.5. Theorem.
(i) Suppose that the σ\sigma-algebra A\mathcal{A} is countably generated and that μ\mu has a compact approximating class in A\mathcal{A}. Then, for every sub-σ\sigma-algebra BA\mathcal{B} \subset \mathcal{A}, there exists a regular conditional measure μB\mu^{\mathcal{B}} on A\mathcal{A}.

(ii) More generally, let A0\mathcal{A}_0 be a sub-σ\sigma-algebra in the σ\sigma-algebra A\mathcal{A} such that there exists a countable algebra U\mathcal{U} generating A0\mathcal{A}_0. Assume, additionally, that there is a compact class K\mathcal{K} such that for every AUA \in \mathcal{U} and ε>0\varepsilon > 0, there exist KεKK_\varepsilon \in \mathcal{K} and AεAA_\varepsilon \in \mathcal{A} with AεKεAA_\varepsilon \subset K_\varepsilon \subset A and μ(AAε)<ε|\mu|(A \setminus A_\varepsilon) < \varepsilon. Then, for every sub-σ\sigma-algebra BA\mathcal{B} \subset \mathcal{A}, there exists a regular conditional measure μA0B\mu^{\mathcal{B}}_{\mathcal{A}_0} on A0\mathcal{A}_0 (a probability if μ\mu is nonnegative).

In addition, for every A0\mathcal{A}_0-measurable μ\mu-integrable function ff, one has:

Xfdμ=X(Xf(y)μA0B(dy,x))μ(dx).\int_X f\,d\mu = \int_X \left( \int_X f(y)\,\mu^{\mathcal{B}}_{\mathcal{A}_0}(dy,x) \right) |\mu|(dx).
