What if you could give nicknames to plugins from within the Plugins-Manager?
This would give the ability to tweak the names of plugins (on the front end) so that when you add them to a track, they have less obtrusive names than SUPER_COMPRESSION_PLUGIN_VST_64_3 and instead Super Compressor.
NOTE: I'm not referring to the ability to rename INSTANCES of insert plugins once you've added them, I know that can be done already and it's been a huge help! Basically what I'm talking about is the ability to tidy up this giant pool of VST plugins we all collect by giving a nickname to some of the more... wordy plug-in names. See the provided image for an example
Also, what's cool about aliases is that, since you can't just go and hardcode a new name for a VST/AAX/etc plugin, the alias/nickname enables the user to tie their own custom title which could then be matched up with its corresponding plugin in an XML/JSON type situation stored on the user's drive.
Just thought I'd throw this out there, because the idea hit me and I thought it'd be really neat! Loving Studio One!
