Cosmos | Tree size info in preview image

It would be VEEEEERY useful to have tree size info right in the preview image. All trees appear scaled to fit the preview image, no matter if they are 1m-high or 25m-high... it's very annoying to have to click onto each asset to have an idea of it...

Load in cryptomatte alpha to act as render region matte

It would be great if you could load in a black and white map jpeg sequence (or an PNG with unpremult alpha) to act as a custom render region. So if you need to re-render just one element in your shot you can isolate it and do it quickly. Thanks

Lights statistic to V-Ray Profiler

add a lights statistic feature to the V-Ray Profiler. It would be very helpful to analyze how much each light contributes to render times. This would make debugging very complex scenes much easier.

Savable workspaces

It would be nice if there was a possibility to save workspaces (like in Adobe Photoshop, etc.). For example, I'd like to save the render window in a specific size on my second monitor. And it would be nice to be able to have the main V-Ray window ...
