I really wish they'd add an LED per AirPod in the case, as an easy visual indicator that they're properly seated and charging. I don't know if I'm especially oily or something but both pairs of AirPods I've used have had charging issues in the case after just a few months, and it's so frustrating that it's almost impossible to tell if they're both charging in there.

Nothing like going out for a run and figuring out 50 feet down the road that your audio is only playing through one bud.

Same. I would be fine with like 3 LEDs where the left and right LED would turn green when fully charged airpod & green for the case as middle one.

While it's charging everything, you might see blinking/orange LEDs until they turn green.

Of course interactions for when the case is charging the airpods and when the case is plugged in, but that's not too difficult I think.
