Various parts of the UI refer to modules by their type. The most important
examples are the module configuration views and progress messages. This can
cause confusion when multiple modules of the same type are used in a network.
Worse, in some cases, the module shown in a progress message is an internal
module of the actual module on the canvas.
To solve this, add the name of a module (if set by the user):
* Progress messages: rather than ``vtkImageContinuousDilate3D: Performing
greyscale 3D dilation'' use ``vtkImageContinuousDilate3D "Narf": Performing
greyscale 3D dilation''. If the message refers to an internal module, prepend
the on-canvas module: ``closing "Narf": vtkImageContinuousDilate3D: Performing
greyscale 3D dilation''.
* Configuration views and other windows related to modules: prepend the name
of the module to the title bar. Instead of ``slice3dVWR 3D view'' use ``Poit
(slice3dVWR) 3D view''. Prepending names to window titles helps to locate
specific windows in an over-crowded taskbar.
