During the community meeting, someone asked if it was possible to see which actions/steps will be executed in the future instead of having to manually check the policy to see what's next.

The only tricky part with this is once an index is in the transition phase and it has multiple states it can possibly go to, then we don't know where it will go. If it's in the beginning/middle of a state though, since it's linear we definitely know what's next.

Will use this issue to track it + see if other people are interested.
