Ability to See Details for Multiple Versions in Movie Store

Now that there are more UHD movies in the store, we have lost the information for more HD counterparts. For example, you can't see the Audio tracks and Special Features for any HD quality movie that also have UHD.

Ideally, the options on the left side would be buttons you could press, then the details would show appropriately on the right side.

I've mocked up how it would work:

Alternatively, it could show next to each function/feature/audio/etc an icon of the applicable type. Alternate-alternative to help cut-down on clutter, it could have no mark when all versions are the same, so only differences have a mark (the drawback being we wouldn't know if they were all the same or just not updated, while going back through the database.)

Example from the mock-ups above: The scenes would show all three resolution icons (HDR/HD/SD) on each line. Or maybe not, since I would expect these to be available regardless, barring a bookmark of extended footage and different versions in UHD/BD/DVD. Under special features, however, they would all have just the HD icon (and maybe SD for certain parts.)
 
Any update on this? Mike?

It would also be helpful to be able to set your default format. So when you open a movie in the store, it will show the specifications for that default.
