Like on Gazebo-classic, it should be possible to visualize links' CoMs so users can debug their models and simulations.
On classic, CoM visuals consist of a sphere scaled proportionally to the link's mass, and lines stretching to the link's bounding box. The sphere represents a uniform ball of lead with the same mass, so if it is as big as your model, your model is as dense as lead!
CoM visualization could be toggled from:
We could also consider adding toggle buttons to an entity's component inspector.
Here's classic's
