Sounds reasonable.  Actually, there are quite a few SGF properties that
should be displayed when they are set.  However, I'm not certain how to
do this best.  One option is to show a label on the side bar when there
is some "additional information" property, but this can have an annoyance
side effect: it can get shown/hidden every second node if these
"additional information" properties are sporadic in the tree.

Right now I'm working on SGF tree view CGoban1-style, so this feature
will be pending for some time anyway.

This is more controversial (because it is of limited use.)  Maybe your
metamachine can sort nodes on writing instead?
