cmake-gui: Visual Studio platform name Current Generator back on CMake GUI window?

When using a previous version of CMake (prior to CMake 3.14) with Visual Studio as selected generator, CMake GUI always displayed the name of the selected platform (typically "Win32" or "Win64") with the generator, for example:

Current Generator: Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64

It was very convenient to have the platform name displayed on the main window of the CMake GUI.

When a new Visual Studio project is generated "from scratch" by CMake 3.14, the platform name is no longer displayed with the Current Generator. As I just tested with CMake 3.14.4 (the latest release, at the moment), generating for VS2017 x64.

Would it be possible to get the VS platform name back onto the CMake GUI main window?

I posted this question at [CMake] Visual Studio platform name ("Win32", "x64") back on CMake GUI window?

@robertmaynard suggested me to submit this to your issue tracker.
