Nikon cameras stores the focus point that was in focus and the exposure was taken. This would be extremely valuable to see for a sports/action/wildlife photographer.

I generally vote on something that I think would make LR a better product, regardless of whether I personally need it at the time.

Photographe - You come up with more good ideas than I do! ;-}

I have a Lightroom sidekick app that displays the focus points of the most-selected photo (presently works for Nikon D300 compatibles only, but will be user adaptable for other mfrs & models), unfortunately its not anywhere near ready for prime-time.

So, I don't know whether to vote for this or not. I think native focus-point display functionality would be good. So good that I've solved this problem for myself - and will be sharing when finished.

And yet, I acknowledge that not everyone will want to run the sidekick, and put up with its "seams"...

I wish there was a 0-10 voting scale, because I like this idea a lot, and would like to show support, but its not anywhere near top priority for me, because I've already got the aforementioned workaround for myself.

Cheers,
Rob
