Mission completion colour coding

When I asked about this in the Rookie channel I was told to bring it up here.

If you have a mission active you can see the selected info on it top left with the name of the mission and when you click on it it you get the destination and all that. But if I want to check if the mission completed (different missions have different requirements) I have to go through the pulldown menu, open the mission info and look for the big green text stating "completed". From what I understood the journal will also flash but there's tons of icons flashing all the time and it's not always clear what that means.

To me that seems a bit silly and not very user friendly. Why not have the mission name change colour if it's completed (green for instance, like the green "completed" text in the mission info window). That way you can do a mission, instantly see it's completed because its name changed colour and warp off. To me that would be so much easier to use and makes more sense than the current system.

Any thoughts?
