I don't believe this would provide any sort of advantage, beyond cluttering the UI.
We don't really need to know who we're arresting.
If we see their name, we still have to call it in and determine if anyone wants them, or if it's a Jailbird.
I believe your second idea to be more appropriate, as we often ask, not "Who is marked for arrest," but "Why is this person marked for arrest?"
All the same, I'm not sure how this'd interact with the UI. I think it'd be more appropriate to add it to the Examine screen.
So that you wouldn't know why someone is wanted, until your SECHUD reads it out to you.
(When you ALT+click someone, it describes them. Sechud would allow you to view their reason for arrest, at the bottom of the examine report.
Though this field is often left empty, in RP it might be more useful.)
