how do I know whether to replace the tape?

I am reminded of another slight annoyance: suppose I solve a level, so I have a slot in the high score table and a saved tape. Then I solve it again. The game asks me if I want to overwrite the tape. At that instant, it would be nice to have a couple of small stats about the two tapes:
old tape: duration 3:45, score 12345
new tape: duration 2:32, score 13579
aha, I guess I will save the new one! -- currently I can only see the results of the new run and don't know what I'm about to overwrite. This also combines with the 1-slot problem: after I say 'yes, overwrite it', I can't even go look at the scores to see whether I [whoops!] overwrote a better run...
