This already exists in the individual editor: the presence or absence of a book icon in the column just before the padlock.  
I also sought the opinion of a developer to see if this icon could be clickable and lead to the Events tab of the Combined View, which provides maximum information with minimum clicks.

I’m probably repeating myself too, saying this isn’t feasible.
