Is your feature request related to a problem?

I can't remember what a logical switch or special function was intended to do

Describe the solution you'd like

I want to give each logical switch and special function a descriptive name. and then see those in places where they are used

this is similar to a secondary part of #1896 , BUT I have no need for the grouping, so I'm hoping this part will be easier/quicker to implement than the grouping described there

Describe alternatives you've considered

That will be great.. i have been trying to understand a complex plane template in SoarETX and having a name/comment for the Logical switches will help a lot.

I would love this too. Also, in addition to the name, would be great to have something like 50 to 100 characters to do a brief description or note.

This would be nice. I use a a excel spreadsheet for many of my models. Its the only way not to waste logical switches. It helps tremendously when I have no logical switches or only a few left. They can get really complex incorporating adjustable global variables using curves(for limits on a pan and tilt system) and combination of flight modes, and mixes to save logical switches.
