That is a good point. Could be something like "initial application name" or only "Application Name:"?

What would be a good candidate for a default application name?

Should there be a checkbox with Create initial application checked per default?

The only issue I noticed is that the editor title didn't update if the application editor of the renamed application was open. I will file a bug for that immediately.

Recently I had the idea why not always automatically create a fist application when a system is created and open the application editor for this system. This would reduce the initial effort especially for novice users and also drive the user more towards the IEC 61499 way of application first engineering.
