 tab, this name would replace the name of the command in the model display.
 Currently setting this name just is ignored and is lost after saving and
 reopening the model.

 I have also modified dialog for adding new commands to the model which now
 enables setting label and comment, see attachment:modeler-label-
 comment.png

 in the form of a comment object that would be ignored in the model.

 contextual menu, it's saved to model file. I am not sure how to display
 them, probably as tooltips or directly in the object shape below label.
 Any opinions?

 > I think the ideal would be to be able to add comments independent of
 objects. Sometimes comments can be about a process that includes several
 objects. And for such comments it would be nice to have a specific form
 not yet used by other types of obects (triangle, hexagon, ...).

 This make sense.

 > And to push things even further: it would be nice if these comments then
 also show up in the Python code...

 As comments, good point.
