Summary0000709: Naming envelope-points in instrument-settings
Description

Hi,
It's just a feature request, may it need some changes in the file format, so i dont think it will real tomorrow... but maybe at some time in future, who knows?

In the instrument-settings plane, where i can draw a instrument-envelope for Volume, Pan and Pitch, it would be cool if i could give names to the envelope points.
Actually some are clear, like the loop points with this moveable bars, but some times i try to design some instruments and then the sound is doing at some point, some thing, that i have thought of, and i would like to write the idea/reason of the envelope point, somehow, into the envelope point.
In example if i make a Drum, it could be a sine with pith and volume envelopes, so i get the drum, then at the end, in example, i add a simulated echo, also as similar envelopes added to the drum envelope it self, but a little bit less loud. So i get one instrument sounding like a drum with just a pitch and a volume envelope and the same envelope is also doing the echo. So now i would like to name, the Point where the drum part of the envelope is finish and the echo part of the envelope starts, "echo"/"reverb". So if i open a module and look at the instrument, after 100 years, i have my own hints about what i thought about the point.
This was just simple example, but it could also be a melody or a vocal or what ever you can do with envelopes and instruments. And maybe it would be also to other people use full if they can name theyr envelope points. It would not have to be a book, just some hints like "here it starts" or "this is the second part of the melody" or "this is my crazy effect".
May they stay normal and if some one adds with a right click option some text to the point, it appears with the whole text or a shortened form and a context menu hint.
Just a idea i had, thanks any way.
