There is already a space for it in the database and you can assign a label in the Cuepoints tab of the track Properties dialog accessible by right clicking a track in the library. However, it seems that when the skin specifies a graphic for that hotcue the label is not rendered on the waveform. Currently Deere specifies hotcue graphics for only the first 4 hotcues. I'm not sure about the other skins, but I think they only have graphics for the first 4 or 8 hotcues as well.

When the label is rendered on the waveform, just the number is rendered on the overview, but there is no label. I don't think there is much point to having a label if it is only shown when the playhead is close to the hotcue point. Drawing it on the overview would not work very well either because there is not much space there. A new cue point list widget like in Serato would need to be made to make this feature really useful.

A handful of related ideas are collected in this Launchpad blueprint:

Many people (myself included) have been wanting this for a long time, so if you feel inclined to take on this project, please do. :)

Has there been any code written for this yet, that needs to be tested?
Im currently using master(r6315?) + WriteTags + Ratings compile, and
it works fantastically, no problems.

Wanting to do some tune breakdowns.
