Feature Request: Display Accessory UUIDs in Homebridge UI

[Route105]

Feature Description

Summary:
It would be highly beneficial to have the Accessory UUID visible directly within the Homebridge UI. This feature would streamline the process of integrating accessories into automation scripts, especially for setups involving numerous devices.

Use Case:
When building holiday show scripts that interact with the Homebridge API to control accessories (e.g., turning switches on/off), it’s currently cumbersome to identify the UUIDs for individual accessories. For setups with many devices, fetching all accessories via the API and manually matching them one by one is time-consuming and error-prone.

Proposed Solution:
Add a column or dedicated section in the Homebridge UI to display each accessory’s UUID alongside its other details. This would make it easier to reference and use the UUIDs directly in automation scripts.

Benefits:
1. Saves time for developers managing large setups with many accessories.
2. Reduces errors in scripting by providing direct visibility of UUIDs.
3. Enhances the overall usability of Homebridge for advanced users.

Thank you for considering this request! This feature would significantly improve the experience for users who integrate Homebridge with custom APIs and automation scripts.
