(I assumed that the destination address(es) of every transaction to be signed by the Trezor were always displayed on the Trezor window, so that the client could check them independently of the computer and confirm with one of the two buttons.  I understand from the comment above that this is not always done, is that it?)
It is not done, yet.
P.S. I don't want to write here about this problem anymore.
I wrote 4-5 posts about this and zero reaction from developer.
From one of the posts above.  This is being worked on and will be fixed in a future update.

So once the firmware update is done we should be able to verify the receiving addresses in the Trezor window before sending any BTC to the Trezor.

I was wondering if displaying the entire address is the problem.  I see two solutions:

1) It should be good enough to display the head 10 characters and tail 10 characters of the address (or something like that)
2) Just use the two buttons to scroll left and right through the address in the window.  That way it can be larger and easier to read.

A long time ago (pages ago) I also suggested that the Trezor interface be enhanced so that the web site could have a button next to each Bitcoin address that said "verify this address".  Pressing the button would cause the window on the Trezor to display the same address in the sequence that the web site is displaying.  The the user could verify the two are the same.
