Disk space available (when using quota)

Is it possible to show (e.g. at the top bar in FileVista at leftside of username), the information "200MB of 1G free"?

This would help users to get a feeling of how much room is left. At this moment they get a message when they actually reach the limit.

This would be really usefull for us too, as currently you can see how much space is being used in the root folder, but doesnt count the subfolders as well, which is misleading  to the users.

FYI, as of v3.8 the following features are included which is related to this topic:

- Added: Detailed information (action size, remaining size and total quota) will be displayed when an action (Upload, Add to Zip, Extract and Paste) exceeds the quota limit of the folder.
- Fixed: Quota limit will be checked before starting the actions (Add to Zip, Extract and Paste). If the total size of the action exceeds the quota limit, the action will be canceled.
This will prevent the action from being completed partially. In previous versions, the action was being processed until a file's size exceeded the quota limit. This was causing partially extracted/pasted files.
- Fixed: Quota limit will not be checked when moving items from a subfolder to a parent folder and vice versa unless the subfolder has an overridden quota setting.
A parent folder's total size already includes the size of the subfolders so moving items within the parent folder can not effect the remaining quota size.
