Is there an existing issue for this?

  • [x] I have searched the existing issues and checked the recent builds/commits

What problem are you experiencing?

Just tried the new menu to promote witges and it works great !

The only drawback for me, is that it does not allow to change the widget name, ( by changing the input slot name ), like the old method.

When does this problem occur?

When we have multiple nodes of the same type, in the same subgraph.

How often do you encounter this problem?

Daily

How much does this problem affect your workflow?

Causes moderate inconvenience

Current workarounds

The node badge numbers are shown next to the widget name, but these are only useful if we enable "show badges" and go in to the subgraph.

Ideas for solutions (Optional)

  • In the new menu, we could click on the widget name to change it.

  • The original name could be shown next to the custom name, in this menu, like this: steps_refiner ( steps )

Additional context

I also noticed that node badge numbers are being duplicated, when subgraphs are used ( https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend/issues/5913 ), but this issue also happens in old frontend versions, before this feature was introduced.
