Research direction

Read commit 679bb17100373c07fad1767927ee4c1cb4d3e6b3 to understand the existing custom root-node name, then trace the preference page and tree viewer entry points. Add a preference that can be changed dynamically, and verify that changing it updates the root object name.

Description

good first issue

With 679bb17100373c07fad1767927ee4c1cb4d3e6b3, WindowBuilder allows consumers to set a custom name for the root node in the tree viewer. There should be an entry in the preference page with which this can be set dynamically.
