[Overlay] - Tri and N-gon display
There should be an overlay option to display tris and N-gons, this is very useful to exchange mesh data with Sub-D tools in other software that require meshes to be all quads.

Hello! You can install free addon called Poly Source: blendernation.com/2020/03/01/blender-add-on-overview-poly-source-free/ It is pretty convenient =)
* @Yan Kansky * Thakns for the tip. The downside to using an addon is that it processes large amounts of data through python, which will be much slower than a low level native implementation using C++.
* @Hologram * Oh... I didn't know about that. Well, we really need the overlay option then.
Poly Source is a must-have add-on but you can alternatively enable Statistics on the viewport:

* @ xan2622 * I see, you can enable mesh check for live inspection, nice!
You can select faces by sides in the select menu, but having polygon sides as a shading style (where each kind of polygon is a different color) in overlays would be cool too.
