I found the upgrade system names to not be very great at expressing the rank they are. Much of the time, this led to gear-hoarding in my bags because I was never certain which items to discard or keep.
What this addon aims to resolve is to better express these ranks using the profession quality icons.
In Patch 10.1, gear has upgrade levels. For example, a piece of gear will show "Upgrade Level: Champion 4/8". This addon would supplement that, adding the icons used by profession crafting quality to instead show "Upgrade Level: 
Rank / Quality:
Explorer - Single Copper Dot
Adventurer - Double Silver Dot
Veteran - Triple Gold Dot
Champion - Quadruple Teal Dot
Hero - Pentagold
