Hello Minou, I just tried this and it does display the name (coords) in the left-hand column, but only when the track is viewed in "dense". In "full" the left-hand column is where you would see item names (rather than the track name) if you had included them in your track.
Hopefully this information was helpful and answers your question. If you have further questions or require clarification feel free to contact the mailing list at [email protected].
