Show Vault Login ID on the status bar

Please, show the Vault login ID much like it is done in vault itself. Being the admin and switching between logins is difficult to do when you've got no clue which login you're under in Inventor without having to logout to see the current ID.

Like in Vault client, I'd like to see the name of the current user who is logged in Inventor at the bottom right of the Inventor window.

Wouldn't this be the person that is currently logged into that computer?

I know that's how it always has been everywhere I've been.

No. I could be logged into the PC as Bob, be logged into Inventor/Vault as Paul and logged into Vault Client as Administrator. If I forget who I am logged into Inventor/Vault as I can Get/Checkout and checkout files as Administrator and then try to edit them as Paul in Inventor, but that would obviosuly fail. My suggestion was just a simple method to see, without log out/log in, what username I am logged into Inventor/Vault as.

Never realized I couldn't see who was logged in... Great idea!

Also, show which vault you're in as well.
