As many of You live with someone, or, just like me, need labels to keep things in order. It would be nice feature to be able to name the chests somehow, so instead of "Metal Chest" in the chest inventory window we would see "Seeds" or "Inspirationals" or whatever we put there "Cocks and Seamen"

It would be nice if the wooden sign was either liftable or made with plugs instead of nails.

If you have your chests sticking next to one another you DONT use signs.

Yes, I like the idea. But would apply it to all storage containers.

And this labels should be visible before we open chest

you can always get more or less the same functionality by using keys, for now. Of course, it isn't immediately obvious without hovering the key.

Why would it be hard to code?
There is already something similar in the code for keys and signs. It think it would be fine if you had to click it first of select a view name option. I wouldn't care where the text displayed.
In Haven you can carve on stones.
