Would be nice to be able to input the current pressure setting in flight details and have any legs and airspace boundaries defined in Flight Levels displayed somewhat accurately on the radar.

Should reset to 1013.25 every time you start a new route in planning, or Go Flying without a route.
This is to (a) maintain current standard behaviour for those who don't want to use it and (b) not catch you out when you next go flying.

Extra optional, an setting to enable a prompt for the current pressure when you Go Flying and the planned pressure is 1013.25.  Option off by default.

If you were to implement this, I'd be very happy with it being off by default.  I agree, it's probably a niche requirement by virtue of many pilots avoiding airspace entirely, especially the higher ones where FL bases are used.
