Highway numbers? (e.g. US 1, I-80, SR 52, etc.)

It's really common for ATC to direct me to fly over a specific highway, or make a turn over the highway, or to report when I've crossed over a specific highway.

I've only used the vector map so far, and while it can render highways, it does not ever seem to render their identifying numbers. This makes things difficult when flying over unfamiliar areas, or even familiar areas that I haven't flown over much. Is there any way to get it to display the highway numbers? If not, can that be added in a future patch?

The best reply to that is "unfamiliar". ;)

While it's the pilots responsibility to familiarize himself with the airport procedures, some instructions are only useful for the locals. Even if I did have a map with highway numbers on it, I'm better off with my eyes looking outside in a busy airport environment. "Unfamiliar" gets me more useful instructions.
