Rateshop Report

It would be nice to have a rateshop report that would show all the rates and delivery services an order received between certain date ranges.
Use Case: USPS is struggling here in Indiana due to a new facility that is not being managed well thus causing dealys, unscanned packages we already shipped, etc. Customer wants us to do a cost comparison if we turned off USPS, essentially what would the next cheapest non-USPS rate would have been if USPS was turned off. I do not have a simple way to do that over a period of time without going into each order and getting a random small sample size whereas a report could be filtered to help establish what other rates were provided back via the APIs when rateshopping.

Any updates on possible future development? As we go into the new year, this feature would be extremely helpful to negotiate rates with carriers who are hungry for more volume.
At a minimum, it would be helpful to display an additional field in Techship reports that shows the rateshopping group (Ex. ECO, STD, EXP).. That way I can isolate rateshop orders from non-rateshop orders.

This would be very helpful as well from a carrier negotiation standpoint
