Beatsource LINK Issues

When searching songs from Beatsource, it's great that the BPM and key info are there, but the key only displays in standard notation even though all my other tracks are set to alphanumeric. Can this be changed?

Also, the key stoplight feature does not work with Beatsource tracks either. 

The last issue I noticed is that Beatsource will often times have multiple versions of the same song, one with a longer intro, a clean version, and a dirty one, ect. Rekordbox does not show these differences for me. only 4 tracks with the same name. Also, not all of these tracks are available to all users. So if I go to load a version that I may not have access to, it gives me an error. 

Serato has a good way of handling this. First, the key is converted to whatever key format the rest of the library is using. Second, each version of the song is labeled correctly, ex: Songname (Clean), Songname (Intro). Lastly, the tracks that I am not able to access due to my subscription status are greyed out. This is helpful so that I know not to waste time trying to load them while playing a set and wondering if its an issue on my end or with the internet connection. 

If these changes could be implemented to Rekordbox it would be a huge improvement for me! Thanks.
