What about including support for a small display like SSD1306. This would be usefull for elderly people/ or people not wanting to use app/browser, but still getting insight in to their power usage. The display could show their current usage live.

A separate display unit (like those meters that used to hang on the kitchen wall some decades ago) could become a future add-on product, but is not on our shortlist of things to look into.

The SSD1306 is not a display, but a display controller. I have code for initialization and how to display pixels (and characters/fonts), that I can donate.
