When adding a new job (add_job), or altering an existing user-defined job (alter_job), it would be nice to be able to give it a custom name. When a database has more than a few custom jobs, seeing "User defined job" is not as useful to figure out which is running.
Implementation challenges
alter_job could get tricky if you want to prevent users from renaming built-in jobs. So I'd settle for add_job having the parameter.
