a) not sure why it is relevant for the GUI. What would be the use case there? b) useful for monitoring/stats?

Could be implemented both in the GUI, but under an "advance monitoring setting" or something and in the daemon as a programmable watchdog

NACK, I don't think there is a really great use for this for most users. Reorgs are currently very rare and when they happen they are 1 block at most. The GUI should and does show users if their transactions are unconfirmed, that should be the most important thing. As for (b) an advanced user can use
-blocknotifyand some external script to detect that more than one block at the same height has been processed. -

I think it's safe to close this as won't-fix for the reasons stated above. Pull requests are always welcome!
