That would be a super addition.
In the meantime, I use an app called Rest Stops. It's not perfect: it generally knows where you are, but doesn't really know exactly which road you are on or which way you are heading, but you can easily get distances to rest areas by looking at the map view. Plus, it's crowd sourced which means it knows which rest stops are closed. Something VERY handy along I-81 in Pennsylvania between Harrisburg and Scranton as there is a single rest area in the nearly 200 mile gap that is currently closed for construction. Handy to know!
But yes, an indication of the distance/time to the next rest stop right on the car's nav would be awesome. Better yet if it uses crowd-sourced info to determine any closures.
