Unless the idea has changed since I last checked the Wiki, a feature in the organism editor will be a sizing board. From what I've read it will have measurements and a silhouette of a human, mouse and elephant. I think something that would be helpful would be if it also contained silhouettes of key animals in your ecosystem or animals you have encountered in your previous generation.
This would make it a lot easier to compete or evolve with other species. For example, it would be no good if you were trying to compete with another predatory species and you couldn't tell how big they were when in the editor, you went to fight them and found out they were triple the size of you. Obviously you would be able to toggle this feature.
I know the developers aren't thinking about multicelluar and beyond at the moment, but I thought this would be a helpful idea. Maybe it's not good at all. Perhaps it's the worst idea for games since Battlefront didn't have space combat, who knows. But reading this post at least would be nice.
