If the implementation is right, I could go for something like this. Maybe bang out a POC and post it so I can see what all would be involved and we can discuss.

Does it need to be a column necessarily, vs. something in mem.extra? If it's a column, it needs to be readonly for the UI user in some way that won't be confusingly un-ediable when they think it should be. Could also be a hover-over tooltip type thing...
