Right. Users have fine-grained control over local mods, so it makes
sense to have a bit more detail displayed there.

Also, when receiving an update, it's nice to see a _U and understand
that only a property changed; or when looking at status output, just
seeing "__" instead of "_ " is useful, because it reminds you which
files have properties at all.
