I use a lot of custom codes in my workflows. I would love to have an opportunity to name my custom code actions and/or give them a description.  
Now the custom code is shown in the workflow like this: the custom code is written twice.

Now I have to click it open, if I want to know the reason of the code. But if I could give a name to the action it would be much quicker to remember what is its purpose and the workflow is much more efficient to understand and maintain.

I am surprised this has so few upvotes! I used the ‘comments’ but this is ineffective for the same reason-\> I need to click in to see whatall it does. It would be nice if I could be like “get associated record ID”

Agree, this would be very helpful.
