After spending much like looking for a friction inidcator, I realized I was looking in the wrong place. According to the service manual, such a signal does exist, but on the CarCan NOT the EVCan where I was looking. I guess I'll be out gathering some more braking logs using the CarCan mode today.
I think I'd like to revise my feature request #3 a little. Since it is not really safe to keep looking down at the SOC meter, I think a really killer app for it would be to add a small piezo-electric speaker and have it emit a tone whenever friction brakes are being applied (maybe with frequency proporional to amount of hydraulic pressure). Since most of us avoid friction braking all-together, we will only get the beep whenever we screw up so it shouldn't be too annoying and would allow you to keep your eyes on the road.
