Default Wound & Experience indicators

Is it possible to get little red dots for wounds and little gold dots for experience to show up on the army setup screen? Having to check manually, having to use 'e' and 'w' as workarounds is fiddly and odd. If all I want to know is 'how many wounds does this army have' or 'how many stars in my cav unit', I shouldn't have to click 20-30 times.

Since I'm already a heretic, I might as well make it worse.

Clic one Unit, then W or E (not sure about that one) this should Highlight wounded or experienced units (respectively), there is "some" amount of userfriendlyness in this game .

I know about those shortcuts: however you still need to check to see HOW wounded or HOW experienced they are, so you need to screw around with the status windows. What if wounded or experienced were brighter, or always listed first, or had gaps in the squad delineating them or something? Not as good as proper dots (why are the units displayed so small on the army screen anyway) but probably easier to do.
