Visualize analysis directly onto the part

Visualize results directly in the part.
This would help a lot to improve the part.

Here are some examples

Draft Analysis, something like this.

Thickness Analysis.

Disagree. These things should be dedicated tools, not integrated into the DFM analysis. BTW there are already issues in main FreeCAD to implement these analysis tools.

So what is the goal of the tool if they don't allow to quickly improve the design? A huge list of issues doesn't help much to quickly fix design issues.

There is a misunderstanding. I’m not against thickness analysis and draft analysis being displayed as some sort of texture, but it’s just not the goal of DFM analysis. You would just run the tools individually and be able to improve your design. It just wouldn’t be done in the DFM analysis proper.
