TL;DR

When displaying a combinator, show which circuit networks connect to it.

What ?

I can look at a combinator, and confirm that it is checking the correct inputs, and calculating the correct output, but not what network, and hence not what entities are providing those inputs.

Why ?

When debugging issues with a circuit network, I can look at a chest or combinator or other items, and see which networks they connect to, but I can't tell if my combinator is accidentally connected to a wrong network. Including the network information allows more complete debugging.

In the debug options you can use the show circuit network numbers. Or do you mean something else here?

I think he means showing it by default, like the inserter shows on the right.
