Since you have to have your mouse over the file you want to add a semantic too, you can easily see whether it has a semantic set or not ... since your are mousing over it at exactly that time. BTW: this is not a change in the sense Sigil showing semantic properties on mouseover was already part of the code.
Alternatively, simply open the opf tab and look at the guide and you can see everything set. You do not have to edit inside the opf tab if you are afraid to change things there but you can easily view the opf with no fear.
So you already have two methods to see and set guide semantics already. A third will come later.
That said, we will not go back to the absurdly long list of menu items used previously, and generate an even longer list for epub3. Besides being too long, the old approach did not allow the definition to go along with the name as we do now. And many of those terms will be unknown to many users making the current dialog approach a big improvement in my opinion.
And of course, stick with an earlier version of Sigil if you do not like the changes as even more epub3 support is coming to Sigil as some ebooks producers really do want epub3 versions as indicated by the significant increase in Sigil downloads per version we are seeing.
