Summary

When adding readers and writers please create more readable and useful names for the navigator.

Details

When you add a reader or a writer the default name is not very useful for example:

<not set> [ARCGISPORTALFEATURES]

I find my navigator is much more readable when I rename the readers and writers something like this:

Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service READER

So using the format description not the short name and specifying reader or writer (because after almost 20 years of using FME I still cannot distinguish the reader/writer icons).
