Wouldn't that limit the number of users for a whole region to just the 16,000-or-so dynamic ports available? I have no idea how many customers are using each region, but I can imagine it easily becoming more than that if it hasn't already. I think the best you could hope for is being reserved a randomly selected static IP on a certain server that remains tied to your account for a certain amount of time after disconnecting - but both that solution and your proposed solution would introduce significant privacy compromises. For example: the longer you use the same port number, the more time a court or agency has to order that the IP address currently tied to that port number be handed over. Proton doesn't keep logs, so as soon as you rotate to a different port there is no longer any way for a court or agency to figure out who was using the previous port at the time in question. So from a privacy standpoint, it's actually advantageous to change ports periodically, and perhaps a better feature request would be a way to tell applications to change their listening port when the VPN connects.

I would like just a small optional icon, in all of the Proton apps, to show at-a-glance if the connection is routed through the VPN. Clicking the icon should open up a widget or separate page that lets you run a more complete test. Currently I have to trust outside services to periodically leak-test my setup.
