Feature request: Constraint hints?

Is it possible for a future version to provide hints or outright lists of needed constraints for a sketch? 
It is so frustrating to have a simple object such as a rectangle that won't resolve, with no apparent reason.
The program has obviously identified something that isn't complete, but other than the @#$%@ blue line gives no indication.

    It can be frustrating, but typically if you drag whatever is still blue it will usually give you a good idea what’s missing. Also turning on the display of all constraints makes it much easier to follow.
