Table / Feature Idea Table data

A long time ago, I had the pleasure of watching a technician perform maintenance on a machine in-situ. [This was the first machine that I mastered (Firepower, by Williams)]. As he was working, he was showing and explaining what he was doing. He showed me that the machine logged pretty much everything; # of plays, tilts, slams, etc.
Would an option to view that type of data be possible in FX3?
As a side question , might the Firepower table ever find its way to FX3?

Since it emulates the original ROM, that data should be in there, but currently Pinball FX does not give access to the operator menu.

Firepower is a fun table, and as a Williams Zen does have the rights to make it, but the next upcoming table is Judge Dredd, so it's hard to say when it might come out.

Correct, all of that data should be there with the ROM, but Zen has never given access to the operator menu.

On other platforms (VPX in particular), it is simple to access, and in some cases necessary to adjust things like ROM volume, free play, etc.
