The EventDispatch markers carry the event name. At the moment, the only way to see it is to right click on the marker, "Copy marker JSON", and then look at marker.data.data.type. It would be nice if this event name was shown in the tooltip, or even inline in the marker box.

Research direction
Look at how EventDispatch markers are handled in the Chrome importer, trace the marker data to the display component, and add the event name to the tooltip and/or marker box.
