Feature request: GPX 'trk' export please add MSFS "TITLE" & "ATC ID" to GPX 'name' element.

Hi, a feature request if you ever find the time: the current export of GPX tracklogs could helpfully include some reference to the plane that generated the log, i.e. the current LNM GPX export format contains:

  <trk>
    <name>Little Navmap Track</name>
    <trkseg>
    ....

This makes it a little inconvenient for comparing GPX tracklogs from multiple players flying the same task, as 3rd-party GPX display software tends to use the 'name' as the label for the tracklog. Including the aircraft type (MSFS simvar "TITLE") and particularly tail number (MSFS simvar "ATC ID") would be helpful, e.g.

  <trk>
    <name>Little Navmap Track - Cessna 152 - B21</name>
    <trkseg>

I can use the values from the aircraft performance file. This is doable.

Using the SimConnect values is a bit too much effort since a track can contain points from different aircraft. Also, the information is only available when connected.

thanks - would that pick up the same data for two different users on different PC's though? That was the main issue for me. I totally understand the "effort" part, of course.

Yes. Maybe it would be better to let LNM ask for the data on export. This allows the user add his own name or description.
