BPC icons should show runs, ME and TE somehow

If you play EVE long, you'll have lots of BPCs eventually. The invention makes it worse. As time passes, your research will make progresses on your original BPOs. When you have finished a research, you may make some copies. The same kind of BPCs with different properties will be accumulated in your BPC containers. Lots of them. Tons of them. All of them show the same faces. This makes the management of BPCs a hell.

Furthermore, even the 'show info' function dose not work correctly sometimes. I don't know the reasen, but it happens frequently.

Why not add 'R9-M10-T20' types of suffix to the BPC titles? Or show it by mouse over? Or make an option to let the client do these functions?

I could get behind the mouse over

Eve is like an addiction; you can't quit it until it quits you. Also, iderno

This seems like something that makes more sense as a filter function for the cargo bay, so you could grab all BPCs with an ME of 5 and a TE greater than 7, or all BPOs with an ME greater than 8. Trying to cram it onto the icon would cause issues for smaller resolutions and probably require CCP to include... 4000 different icons in the game, since icons are static images and you would need one for every possible combination of R, Me, and Te.
