That's not a good idea as the mixer gain is a 'live' control, can be changed anytime using a MIDI controller, etc.
Completely different from the track gain which is a static value.
Moreover the gain range is not the same for both values...
Agreed with the lack of a track gain display (as it used to be) but using (or merging with) the mixer gain is definitely a bad idea.
