 Coming from an email on frontdesk:

 "Hello,

 I am wondering why the site info shows not the starting(real) IP address.
 This would be helpful to check if all is as expected.

 Meaning currently it shows:

 This Browser
 Guard (IP of guard)
 Node (IP of node)
 ....


 But why not:
 This Browser (real IP or seen IP (e.g from a VPN))
 Guard (IP of guard)
 Node (IP of node)
 ....

 That would give me more trust how I am really connected.
 I would like to see this in an upcoming release (if it is no privacy
 harm)."
