I'm confused. 1. I don't think more than one 'name for display purposes' should be required. 2. Any property sent in the options for a layer is set as a property on that layer, which can be taken advantage of by any controls, etc. (See attribution.html example, for example.) 3. I don't see what UI element would display anything other than 'name' with the current code.
