show a stack of cards and a number when a charm has multiple units

[Dustin Kirkland ]

On site at a customer/prospect this week, demoing the comingsoon.jujucharms.com site.

Immediate, and strong feedback was that deployed charms, whose units have been scaled up should be more apparent that there are multiple units. They suggested perhaps to render it as if its a stack of cards. And also render a small number in the corner of the charm icon, showing the number of active units.

Ack, thanks Dustin. I'm triaging it as high to get UX feedback from Luca soon, and then we can decide where to go from there.

Luca, thoughts? I believe we've heard things like this before, right?

We are aware of this issue, however due to scale issues we don't really plan on showing the unit count on the service. We are hopefully implementing progressive zoom in the near future and we can maybe implement it as added information at a lower zoom.

The latest release of the GUI includes an added services sidebar which exposes the counts for each service.
