It would be helpful to assign user defined (logical) names and description to runtime resources that would make organization in Control easier.
Also search function in Control structure view (objects + resources) would be nice.

The name of runtime resources as shown in Control is based on technical hostnames. Those names may or may not be somehow meaningful, but often the name is not related to Blue Prism at all (eg w03dcp12vm302). 
Sometimes the hostname is also different than users can see when directly accessing the runtime resource (eg name in Citrix: RPA 003).
Structures in Resource Management may be based on team structures, customers, organizational units, ... Changing the structure may move resources to another location and confuses users (and myself).

It would be helpful to assign logical names and maybe also further details to a resource. eg:
Team1 OU 123 \ w03dcp12vm302 (Reporting VDI) [Citrix name: RPA 003, used for issue report creation and distribution]
<Structure> \ <hostname> (<logical name>) [<description>]

Background: we are serving 20 different departments with 15 resources. Over time resources are assigned to different departments and even within one department the purpose changes. Users contact us referring to names shown in Citrix
