That could be useful. I'll suggest that to the developers. Thank you.
But did you know that if you select a village and click on the information icon you will be able to see the most recent reports about that village? I hope that helps while the system you suggested is not implemented.
You can also filter messages using the search box at the top of the Report window. Unfortunately, you can't filter by coordinates so if you're dealing with multiple villages of the same name (*cough* Apocalypse *cough*), you'll still have problems.
