Color overlay scaled objects

This might be more of a plugin idea than a feature, but simple enough that I would consider it a default feature.

As we have "Face Orientation" overlay to check the normals, either blue or red, I think it would be useful to have an overlay to check which objects have been scaled or don't have a uniform 1x1x1 scale. Particularly useful when scene is big and messy.

To take it further: Instead of a binary yes/no to tell which ones are scaled, the color could range from a gradient that show stronger color as more % scaled, and color it differently to show in which axis it has been scaled. This could also apply to "Rotation".

it is doable with geometry nodes, but you need to have geonodes modifier on each object. I wish we could add modifiers to the collections (including scene collection), with that many useful tools would be possible to make, like showing scale, n-gons, texel density etc.
