Software Analyzer - expand message for 'Avoid calling same Data Element' by affected Data Element(s)

Software Analyzer provides rule based checks for RPP Software Quality.
One rule is Design entities Analysis for RPP MAF / Segment Entities / Avoid calling the same Data Element multiple times in a Segment.?
This is a very useful check to avoid Namespace issues within a Segment.?
We have Segments that have > 100 Elements which makes it difficult to identify the message causing Element(s).?
Therefore we would like to have the identified Elements being part of the error message text.?
Providing the Elements in the message text would be also helpful in cases where the duplicate entry is the 'FILLER' field which is acceptable to be included multiple times. Problem identification/Resolution would be much faster.
Alternative would be to allow the -CE Screen to be cut and paste able, so we could use e.g. Excel to identify the duplicates easily.
