Issue: Inconsistent layout name visibility in layout pack projects

Michael Wright
When editing a layout pack project, custom layout names are not consistently visible in the timeline or script view. Some layouts display their custom names (e.g., "TTTP Captions", "TTTP-2person") while others only show generic track names like "Captions". This makes it extremely difficult to identify and manage specific layouts within the pack.
Expected behavior: All custom layout names assigned during the "Save as layout" process should be visible in the layout pack project in the timeline or a dedicated layout list view.
Current workaround: The only way to see all saved layout names is to go through the "Publish changes" dialog, which is not intuitive for basic layout management tasks like identifying which scene to delete.
Suggested improvement:
Add a consistent way to view all layout names within the layout pack project, like adding a layout list panel or showing layout names in the script as chapter markers.
This would significantly improve the user experience when managing custom layout packs.
