I read elsewhere that the dev's really wanted to keep gunner's equipment to ammo. Thus the call for ammo type requests. Otherwise, yes it would be a good gunner item.

Hoja Lateralus:
I think very few engineers would use it, although it may be usefull. Maybe some co-engineers would take this instead of buffers.

HamsterIV:
The OP was not asking for a new item, but rather a change in the Global UI seen by all players.  I am sure the competitive players have the reload times of their weapons as part of their muscle memory. I am not one of those people and would like a little visual indicator to tell me how long until I wait to jump on and swap ammo's at the last second of the reload.

Mezhu:
Or instead, you could learn not to miss the reloads.

I miss quite a few myself and yes it is frustrating especially when it's a slow gun you're re-reloading but I don't get why that has to be changed. Guns reload timing is already transparent enough through sound and animation, anytime anyone misses a reload it's purely his/her own fault rather than the game's mechanics. Mistakes have to be punished, noone asks for a second chance when he misses a hull repair cooldown or uses the wrong tool- minor details like those is in many cases what differentiates the winner and the loser, and as such they should not be simplified.
