User created port labels

The ability to create user generated port labels would be amazing.   This way I can more easily determine which one goes to which datacenter on our side.  

You can leave the current label in the port properties so it can be referred to when putting a ticket in, but the current naming convention is difficult to correlate which port is for which of our circuits going to which datacenter.  

Thanks!

    Hi RFritsch 

    Awesome news - it's happening!

    We've been working on some behind-the-scenes improvements to port ordering, and by June, you'll be able to use MACDs on ports. First up, you'll be able to delete ports (super handy for cleaning things up). But don't worry, renaming ports will be coming soon after!

    Thanks again for sharing your thoughts with the product team. You helped make this happen!
