So if you're recording multiple tracks, you could start recording with Track 1 being the current track, and then change the current track to track 2 once recording starts, and if track two as the output port set to 2, then it should show the levels for the 2nd pair of audio input ports rather than the 1st pair. I haven't tested this yet, and realize it could be inconvenient changing the current track after recording starts.

What I'd like to do is see if I can get the input levels that show up on the tracks themselves during recording in the audio overview section of the Tracks Window to show the levels for the extra ports rather than duplicating the levels of the first port(s).

Yes, that is really inconvenient, not intuitive, and not even I would think to operate that way .. and I look for workarounds
I like your final solution better; showing the recording on the track VUs themselves, but I thought that would be asking too much.
If you could pull that off, even better!

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
