Debugging for false person alerts

motion-settings
I have a wired stick up camera in my garage that looks out toward the garage door. The view shows 0-2 cars, depending on who is home, and some tools and bikes lined up along the wall. I often receive false notifications saying there is a person in my garage, when there is no one there. I have no idea which object in the view is triggering these alerts. I have my sensitivity settings all set to minimum and all smart alerts turned on in an attempt to reduce false alerts. Because it happens so often, I have started dismissing these alerts without checking them. It is becoming a "boy who cried wolf" scenario - I get so many false alerts that if there actually was someone in my garage, I would probably just dismiss it and not realize it. My proposed solution (and feature request) is to please add an option to debug and see what object triggered the alert. This could be something as simple as placing a thin green rectangle around the object. This way I can see what object is being mistaken as a person and I can either remove the object or block it off in the detection zone.
