Computer Status with Logged-On User in DS7

I can understand the desire to consolidate DS functionality into the NS, but the ability to immediately see the status of a computer in real-time (active or inactive) as well as the the currently logged on user is something that really needs to be added to the Symantec Management Console.  I'm aware that you can see the status of computers from the Site Management page when you're looking at your Task Servers, but you can't do anything from there, and logged-on user information isn't available anywhere that I'm aware of.

While I may not know the best way to implement such functionality, I would think that adding it to the grid when viewing Organizational View and Groups might make sense.

It's possible that you guys already have this and more in mind for the DS 7.1 update, which I've heard will add quite a bit of functionality.
