Robot Status on Scoreboard

So I was thinking. Since the computer that generates the time/score that you see on the screen also contains all of the diagnostics of a robot, why can't it show when a robot has bad comm during a match? I don't know how many times that a robot will stop working and I starting thinking "Bad battery?" or "No comm?". This is me being nosey, but I think something small and non-distracting would be cool for those of us that want to see what's happening. We are all ready changing the colors of the teams from green to yellow, why can't we do someting such as put a small battery or wave next to them to show that something is wrong.
