While this idea looks pleasing to the user, there are some restrictions behind the scenes. In some windows there is a reference to the tracks by their first letter only and there is, in some of them, not much room to expand. Let's see with what we need to pay for this new feature.

Still +1
Good point but I think Track Numbers could be used OK, and a mouse move shows what the track is used for. E.g. we currently have 'S' used twice (Strings and Soloist) which is a bit confusing.
Track Numbers would be unique. Something like this maybe?
BIAB & RB2025 Win.(Audiophile), Sonar Platinum, Cakewalk by Bandlab, Izotope Prod.Bundle, Roland RD-1000, Synthogy Ivory, Kontakt, Focusrite 18i20, KetronSD2, NS40M Monitors, Pioneer Active Monitors, AKG K271 Studio H'phones
Anyway, working on a song now, this change is massive. It not only affects BIAB but RealBand as well across all generations of files and program versions.
We all were looking at some obvious aspects, like track names in the mixer, the top instruments menu line, and such. All of these can be changed pretty easy.
But when we enter chords in a song and if select an instrument to be silent in a certain measure, then we draw a different picture. If the designator for, e.g., drums would be changed to "3" then ALL files where a user of BIAB has something like "F.d" in there must be changed or there must be an overlay to interpret the "d" to display "3" and convert a written "3" back to "d" in the files to keep a certain level of compliance among the generations of files and versions of the program.
I believe this will take a while until the developers find a way to have a consistent naming convention within all the respective programs and files -- without burning up a year's output of a power plant to convert all MG?s and SG?s to a new format (world wide).
(That, on the other hand, would provide a whole bunch of new possibilities to write into the file and improve the entire system.)
Actually I would be much happier if the look and feel of BIAB and RB would be more similar than they are now.
