Need ability to check which was the most recently EDITED Comp for 2 or more Identically Named Comps.

Due to the precise alignment of yet un-named stars, I find myself with two Comps, both with identical names in the Project Panel.

So, with current constructs, I can't find a way to ascertain which was the one that was edited last nor can I find which comp contibutes more to the overall AEP filesize; thinking that there is a good correlation between a larger Comp Size and most-recently edited. Number of layers may not be ideal if there are tons of Expressions or Compound Shape Layers - all happily tidied away within the Timeline. 

So, I'm ideating for a Date Modified Column as well as a Comp Filespace/Datasize Column in the Project Panel. We do have a Size Column, so perhaps should work as a container for a Comp's FileSize/Dataspace.

FWIW, the workaround is tedious, manual and hence, painful.

There already is a Date [Modified] column in the Project panel, it’s just not shown by default.
