Hey Riot, any chance of a range indicator for Maokai's passive?

Hey Riot, any chance of a range indicator for Maokai's passive? * /r/leagueoflegends

It'd be handy to know the exact range in which Maokai's passive effect triggers. I'm sure I could look up the range online, but for gameplay clarity I think showing that in game when you hover over the passive would be a nice tweak. I don't think this would inherently add power in a relevant manner and I don't feel it would buff his top laning (the problem area it seems). Could any Rioter let me know if this could be done? Thanks!

For reference: Each time a spell is cast near Maokai he draws energy from it, gaining a charge of Sap Magic Magical Sap. When Maokai has 5 charges his next basic attack heals him for 5 / 6 / 7% of his maximum health.

I like this. No reason it shouldn't be added.

Would make sense. Riot says they are all about clarity and that is what this would do.

The problem is that's a lot of visual noise for an effect which operates entirely in the background. Not like you can play around taking advantage of it at the edge of its range: It's there to motivate you to whack people during spell-fights.
