I like this as well. I've long desired a button that reports input audio format (including channel count), current audio processing, input video resolution, and output video. I'd want it to show up on the front panel, since I normally disable on-screen pop-ups like this, in which case it would tend to be either a single button that cycles through different bits of data with multiple pushes or a single button that triggers a series of front panel reports automatically shown in series. The 885 has a button that does a little bit of this, but it stops short of what I'd like.
