Name of mounted disk does not show in core menue #12

The name of a mounted disk does not shows in the core menu.

First I thought mounting a disk does not work. I tested several disk images, but after mounting the menu showed ‚*.DSK‘.

But the mounted disk worked correctly.

It's supposed to be this way. It's the same for all cores except couple cores having special support in HPS.

ok, thank you for the info.

But it's a bit confusing.

I was also confused by this. This is bad UX and you indicate that only a few cores have "special support" to show what disk is mounted, so that should be ported to all cores in order to improve the UX! (And either way, is there any old system, apart from Macintosh, which is able to unmount a disk on its own? The OSD should reflect the user action, even if some core may cause it to not be 100% true... right now, the OSD is not showing the truth at all, which cannot possibly be the way "it's supposed to be".)
