I think this is an interesting idea. In addition to these two 
reasons, I would enjoy knowing which stations are QRP. I usually 
don't know I'm working a QRP station unless they go out of their way 
to tell me. Last year I worked a couple of QRP stations who later 
emailed to tell me they were QRP and wanting to know if I remembered 
how strong they were. I didn't. If I had known they were QRP at the 
time of the contact I would probably have given an RST report.

I love the SP just the way it is, but I think this would be an 
interesting addition.
