I'd take it one huge step further than that.
Most of those who are writing drivers and apps are doing an incredible job with their efforts. They are doing the best they can with what they are provided by the HE platform.
My guess it they would be onboard with an effort to push the platform forward and deal with issues like this one you are pointing out. There is a long list of details like this that need to be addressed. Until their is an effort to address this type of usability issue, home automation is going to remain a hobby type of thing because it's just not ready for the average joe.
Seems like the perfect place for a kick starter type of thing where developers along with the HE team could work together and push things forward and make some well earned profit from their efforts.
@kkossev has taken a small step as a 3rd party to push things forward around device health. This is another one of those little details that is important and needs to be clarified and then exposed throughout the Hubitat UI.
