I've many folder pairs. I come from SyncToy which is inferior to FFS in many ways but one. It displays the date and time a folder pair sync/backup last ran.
How can I obtain this info in FFS's graphical interface or would this be a new feature?
How to know when folder pair sync last ran?

Since after one week nobody seems to have an answer to my question, I suppose this feature doesn't exist.
After some failed attempts with getting the dates from my big log files, I've come up with another solution. I use a naming scheme containing the current date for my configuration files. The date is sufficient as I run every sync at most once a day.
Before I run a particular synchronisation I rename its configuration file by using the "Save as" option in the Program menu. After this operation I also delete the old configuration from my Configuration list.
My naming scheme for these configuration files is [from partition/disk identification]-[from folder name]=[to partition/disk identification] [YYYY-MM-DD].[extension]
Example : N-Audio=Q 2013-03-25.ffs_gui
I hope it helps people with the same issue until the feature gets implemented.
