Well, in fact I proposed making a dialog for connection/disconnection mainly to 
be able to show some additional info about the attached hw: firmware version, 
USB port, etc.
In future maybe it could be expanded to show realtime monitoring data, e.g. the 
voltage of the pump (this could be done easily using a PIC pin as A/D, isn't 
it?), etc...
However you're right that probably two simple menu items which do a wxLogMessage 
with some info (e.g. "Usbpicprog v.xx connect on port yy") could be enough for 
now...

indeed, it would be very useful.

I think I've made in the past a small utility for both loading/saving into a 
wxConfig such messages; it also included a wxLog modification IIRC...
I'll search it in my past projects.
