Description

"If no name has been given, it will get assigned an internal counter together with the prefix […]" (from latest manual)

It would be nice if the "name" would not be required in the wizard, since it is optional in manual configuration, anyway.

It's not easy to explain the use of this field to an editor with little technical background, but necessary as long as this field is required.
Once they get it questions like "Are whitespaces or special character allowed?" usually follow. It would be easier for them to just leave it empty, since most don't have any advantages by entering something or repeating the label.
