Gotcha. If there's a demand, then I'm +1 for adding it. I can see
other situations when the port info might be nice as well (think
proxy :) )

Well, it's kind of easy (and dangerous) to shove too much info into
the scoreboard, and cause some nasty overhead... That's the reason why
I put some things in the "extended status" area, so that we always
have the important stuff available, and the extra stuff only when
specifically requested (and people are willing to accept the tradeoff). :)
