Please can you add the version of Setup Manager to the UI

This could be somewhere on the main UI, or perhaps in the "About this mac..." pop-up pane that appears.
setup manager progress dialog

Maybe perhaps it could show next to "Setup Manager" that already appears in the pop-up.

Maybe this could be configured to show/hide using a profile key.

This would be useful for seeing which version is installed when testing updates to the package, where occasionally there are issues with packages deploying at PreStage from Jamf.
Currently to check which version has installed, we have to wait until Setup Manager completes, then login and look at the version in /Applications/Utilities/Setup Manager.app, where if we found it was the wrong version that deployed, we could stop the Setup Manager early, and restart the process.

The version of Setup Manager is shown when you hold down the option key while clicking "About this Mac…" along with several other extra bits of information.
