Treating pressure-regulating Master Valves the same way you treat pressure-reducing valves

When PRVs are used, the Irrigation Schedule shows where the pressure is limited to. Can this be done with pressure-regulating master valves?

Additionally, on both PRVs and these master valves (if it's possible to do them), can this pressure info be shown via the edit/info button, instead of having to run/refresh the irrigation schedule?

Thanks!
This would be a tricky one. We would need to make a large number of changes, and the end result would then only support a single such Master Valve.
As we were talking about it, we were thinking, what if instead it was a new callout? So you could call out anywhere on the plan, to note the Pressure Required at that point. That way, you could place these notes at every PRV, every PR Master Valve, and at any points of the system you feel it is necessary. How does that sound?

If you use the Edit/Info button, and select the pipe segment downstream, you'll see the Pressure requirements that the valve should be limited to.

Is there a PR Master Valve you had in mind as an example?
