    Yes this would help a lot, especially with those DB's since 2006. At present all that I can think of is using LISP or VBA - and not all users have that capability.
    I know that the rename dialog filters out all anonymous blocks, so you can't see them to be able to select & rename. Maybe just a check-box to show anonymous blocks in that dialog would solve the problem?
