Sounds like my desk. I  keep the 'puter on my desktop so it's easier  to get
into it. But I've glued a USB hub to the side of the case was double-backed
adhesive tape and affixed labels for each jack in the hub. I've also got all
of the USB cables bundled with string ties and the cables are labeled. That
makes it pretty easy to disconnect cables as needed and reconnect them. It's
an iteration of the old housekeeping maxim, "a place for everything and
everything in it's place."

Not as elegant as a software solution, but on the other hand, no time lost
coming up with a software solution.

Best regards,
