When working with lots of tall channels in the mixer, it is easy to open a plug-in of the wrong channel or move the wrong channel's insert. By "tall" channels I mean ones with lots of Inserts and Sends. If you also show the EQ and compressor, they are even taller.
This option I suggest would make things so much easier.
One would NOT have to go all the way down a channel's strip to make sure one is tweaking the correct one anymore, especially when working with plug-ins and sends (which are at the top of the mixer).
This is how it looks now:
This is what I wish it looked like... Notice the extra bar of colored track names at the top of the mixer, next to the inserts.
And even having an option to make it look more obvious with color, like this:
Notice how much easier it is to make sure you are tweaking the desired channel's plugs or sends. This is especially true for people who work with 2 or more big monitors, or if you like working with the mixer in Narrow Mode.
MOTU, please: Incorporate this little suggestion in DP's next revision. It can be an option. Something one can choose to show or hide (like the rest of the mixer's sections, like showing Faders, Inserts, etc).
