Great idea... why not put this message in 'Feature Suggestions' thread?

Thx guys for bumping this topic. This definitely a missing feature for external subtitles.
I am still surprised that there aren't any 'new' votes for this, and no comments from the developers.
Developers where are you?

Isn't this feature already there?
When you download a subtitle with a language, the subtitle file will end with that language shortcut (e.g. if English it will end with .en.srt or .en.ass...etc). And when you have multiple subtitles, and switch between them using L shortcut (or your remote) while playing you see a message stating something like "MovieName.en.srt [English]" or "MovieName.jp.srt [Japanese]" ... etc.
I am currently having the above effect, using Eden with Aeon Nox skin.
Am I the only one having this feature, or am I missing what you all are requesting?
What I wish for this is to remove the "MovieName.en.srt [English]" and replace it with something more meaningful like "English Subtitles [English]". It also wouldn't hurt to have support for displaying "(hearing impaired)", by looking for something that indicate this in the subtitle filename (e.g. (hi).en.srt). Also, "(Signs)" for filename (s).en.srt
+1 for doing what all other people is asking (even though I believe it is there) + what I suggested
