Has anyone made a device that provides a simple indication of the power
supplied by a USB port? Or is there a standard for indicating how much
a device needs to get from the port? This is obviously a source of
consumer frustration.

Wouldn't that be just a simple 500 mA indicator (digital or analog)?
Low-power USB is max 100 mA , and high-power USB is max 500 mA.
