I would love to have a way when viewing broker inventory to be able to define and see context of the machines in order to remember what each was. For example, I often use the --nick feature to spin up machines based on a "profile". That nick is typically descriptive, e.g. satellite-6.15. When I am staring at a list of multiple machines in inventory I have to guess which was which, accessing each and reminding myself which is which to find the one I need. This would be great to extend to the operating system running as well.

Note: I am not saying that it's the nick that has to be used, could be some description property or something else entirely that provides that context.

This provides a styled middle ground between the default minimal view
and the much more verbose detailed view.
This also give us an opportunity to explore different output styling
with rich.
