I've got a small variety of PDU's in my racks at work. There are some with
C13-C14 outlets and C19-C20 outlets. And a few with standard NEMA5-15R
outlets. There doesn't seem to be a way to differentiate these when I add a
PDU. I'd like to be able to see which plugs are which type of outlet. Is
this possible, or maybe planned in a future release?

You are free to define new (more specific) connector types aside of
built-in "AC-out" and "AC-in". (Configuration -> Port outer interfaces)

However IMHO you need not this. Cabling plan is unambigous.
"Server23 AC-in is connected to PDU41 port7".
No guys in the machine room can plug the power cord in bad socket. :-)
Overall PDU properties may be documented in their Comment field.
