Add participants to middle of diagram for visibility

Question

I want to know if it's possible to add the participants to the middle of a large diagram, so it's easy to see what line each participant is without having to scroll to the top or bottom.

For example a diagram like so; When rendered it's easy to lose track of what vertical line is what participant.

In this example, it would be nice to add the participants again at point 10 / 11 to continue the flow

Hello Th,

Thanks, this does fix my problem. However, is there a place that I can request a proper implementation of this? Rather than adding notes to "fix" it?
