showing autofill?

I was wondering if it would be possible to show in the lobby if someone is autofilled. Yes, this comes from the fact that I just lost a game due to an autofilled support, but the point still stands even in a more cool minded state.

Not everyone tries to swap, especially if they are filled support, partly because of the concept "no one likes support so why even bother to ask" partly because, at least in the low elo where I play (silver 5-4) chatting in lobby has a high risk of turning the lobby toxic ("hey can I mid pls?" "stfu and go support without trolling or you get reported" is not a great way to start a game).

So, being able to see your teammate is in an uncomfortable position would allow you to ask if he needs a swap if you are ok with that position.

I 'm very happy to be able to queue mid/support and actually being able to play mid thanks to the new algorithm in forming lobby but I would still prefer to play support then having mid and then having to look at my struggling teammate who's turning the game in a 4,5 vs 5 and obviously not enjoying himself and having a bad experience.

This needs more support (pun intended).
