Description
As per title, is it possible to be able to view the state of the safety switch (TRUE/FALSE) via the Status tab or add it as a user item? I know if the ARMING_CHECK parameter is set to check the hardware safety switch state (and it is not activated) then the aircraft will refuse to arm and an appropriate message is displayed. I am also aware that if the hardware safety switch isn't part of the ARMING_CHECK and not pressed then MP will display "(SAFE)" if the aircraft is armed, but being explicitly able to view the state adds an extra layer of safety.
Thanks!

Research direction
The issue does not identify a file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the Status tab and user-item/HUD display code, then determine how the safety-switch state is exposed; done means the TRUE/FALSE state is clearly visible in the selected interface and covered by appropriate verification.
