wp_terms_checklist with meta_query

Hello,

I’ve added a custom field term_status to my custom taxonomy productcategory.
Now I want to add a meta box to my post type product. The box should look like a standard taxonomy box with the category checkboxes – but only the terms should be listed with term_status = 1.
My goal is to archive terms, but I dont want to see them in the meta box.

I use
wp_terms_checklist($post->ID, array('taxonomy' => 'productcategory', 'popular_cats' => $popular_ids));
but of course I get all terms of the taxonomy.
I want only those with term_status = 1. I want to do something like:

get_terms(
  'taxonomy' => 'productcategory',
  'meta_query' => array(
    'meta_key' => 'term_status',
    'meta_value' => 1  
  )
);

but this isn’t possible with wp_terms_checklist…

The whole code for the callback function of my custom meta box is:

function productcategory_meta_box($post, $box) {

	$defaults = array('taxonomy' => 'productcategory');

	if(!isset($box['args']) || !is_array($box['args'])) {
		$args = array();
	} else {
		$args = $box['args'];
	}
	
	$r = wp_parse_args($args, $defaults);
	$tax_name = esc_attr($r['taxonomy']);
	$taxonomy = get_taxonomy($r['taxonomy']);
	?>
	<div id="taxonomy-<?php echo $tax_name; ?>" class="categorydiv">
