What are your thoughts on having the RBE node show the current value of the property it's looking for as a node status value?  
It would saving having to use debug nodes or something else.

... at the expense and performance hit of having to send status messages all the time... Also the RBE node works on per topic basis so it can handle multiple topics at once... so which would the status show ?

Ah, good point. I suppose since I only use it for one topic, I would want that one.  
Maybe only enable that option if the multiple topic option is not used.  
I'll stick with debug nodes 🙂

Thanks for the quick response.
