Log while exporting an step file

When exporting the .step file (using kicad-cli this time), if a footprint has more than one 3d model, it duplicates the log line. It would be interesting in this case, if it could add a bit of extra info…

Since there is a list of 3d modules that can be visible or not… this logline could be enriched with something like this…

Add component U1 (#1)
Add component J1 (#1)
Add component J1 (#2)
Add component J1 (#5)

The # is the index of the 3d modules in the list of the models that were visible when they were being exported. Or maybe a better idea would be to have the whole file path.

It makes sense especially when preserving/reviewing the logfile.

What do you think?
