Recount Gearscore Tab

I've read recently about a "Gearscore tab" appearing in Recount that displays a calculation of a player's output vs their gear score, evaluating whether they are playing to their GS potential, under it or over.
Recount itself does not seem to have this tab, is this an integration with the GearScore addon? I don't use the GS addon as I'm not particularly interested in it as I do not gear check people. However, what I am interested in is how myself and my fellow raiders are performing (eg I know some people with amazing scores have terrible performance and vice versa) and I'd like to see some hard numbers in this regard.
So, does anyone know about this feature?

Even if there is such a feature, it would be inaccurate to say the least. Some classes rely heavily on buffs to perform optimally while others don't. Not to mention that some stats play a large factor aswell.
If you want to see if someone is performing according to their gear, a spreadsheet or a sim is the best way to go i'm afraid.
In general gs is a pretty bad way to look at how someone will perform, there's simply to many factors at play to do so.

But still there should be a similar function, which shows a estimated dps which should be in range for a player of that category to reach.

Right, I agree with what Zeldrin says, and I am no fan of the gear score checking fad. But what Wiki says here is pretty much what I understand the functionality to do and that's basically what I want.

It is an integration with the GearScore addon itself. In other words, yes, you must use the GS addon to have the GS recount tab.

All it does is divide your GS by your DPS/HPS... So right now its an arbitrary number giving you an arbitrary fraction. I assume that, over time, people will be able to understand about what they should be getting on it, but its not very well defined right now.

Speaking to the GearScore addon ... I'm really liking Shadowed's ElitistGroup. It's a lot more of an informational tool and less of a judgement.

It is more used as a relative scale within groups, for example to find out who is slacking.
