I suppose you could file this one under possible features, but when the cloning pod is active, you can't check what reagents are in it. This can be a bit of an issue if someone's poisoned it.
Semi-related, maybe it would be good to have some indication of clone process every once in a while:
cloning pod beeps, "37% complete, 12% biomatter remaining"

You can use a reagent scanner, one is located in operating theater on Cog 1.

I tried that but it did not show anything. Note that this is during the cloning process, not when it's idle.

Yes, while the cloning process is going the reagents are auto-ingested into the clone, rather than being ambient inside of the pod.
Reagent scanner works if the process is not-midway

Yes, I'm saying that you cannot do it while it is in progress, which means if someone dumps in some toxic shit just as a cycle starts you have no way of knowing.
