Custom Components should be shown as "lower : MidLevelComponent" in HUD (and other panels)

Given that any serious application will have lots of "Custom Components", it might make sense to show the class name of instances of custom components more clearly in the UI. For example, in the current build the HUD, Interation and Property panels all show "lower (Custom Component)" in the title bar where "lower" is the instance name of a Custom Component (in my example MidLevelComponent - see screenshot). Showing the instances' real class name e.g "lower : MidLevelComponent" would make it easier to manage more complex applications (and would also be far more consistent with ActionScript).
