Please show selected focus point

Hi
When I do manual focus stacking it would be really useful if FRV had an option to display the active focus point used.
The information is in the raw files as Nikon's ViewNX-i has this ability to display the used focus point. The "Display fine details" function in FRV is not selective enough to work out which images are from a focus stack and where the focus point was. Having the option to display selected focus point would be a great compliment to "Display fine details".
Many thanks

Dear Sir:

In the absence of reliable public information on decoding focus points from metadata, and given the fast pace of changes in number of points, grouping, etc. we think that focus point display may be misleading. Nikon have the necessary information, but they are not making it available for third parties.
