Show effective "recipe" in Lab / Biolab tooltips

TL;DR

The tooltip for the Lab / Biolab should show the consumption speeds of science packs the building can achieve.

What?

When hovering over an assembler the current recipe and consumption/production speed is shown below the crafting speed to make it easier to see how many items per second the assembler will consume and produce. Not so for a Lab or Biolab:

Bellow the research speed it should list the science packs needed for the current research as well as their consumption speed. It could also list the number of science cycles per second as the recipe result. With research that take more of one science pack per cycle this would differ from the consumption of science packs.

Why?

Figuring out how many science packs per second the above lab consumes is tiresome and way to much math I want to do every time I change a module, beacon or research speed or productivity is researched. This should be available at a glance just like with the recipe speed for assemblers.
