Default SEV suggestion for ship design

One thing that is driving me crazy is in the ship design. I would like it when you place your cursor over a component on the ship in design that it would tell you what it is and level it's at. At this point if you are unsure or forgot what was placed you need to search it out on the side bar.

You can right-click on the components in the ship layout.
A major PITA nevertheless - click, info window open, click, info window shut.
Why not display the component level in the slot?

Agreed, the level should be imprinted over the component graphic...
