Default Track Name superimposed over wave form

I would like to be able to see a superimposed track name (or the option of the file name) in a much larger font over the wave form.
I know you can see the file name above the wave form but it's pretty useless for large projects.
See the attached image I created as a photoshop mock up to get an idea of what I'm looking for.

For longer tracks when the session displays off the page; maybe have the track name repeat every so often?

Would be cool if the text always were on the left hand side no matter how far you scroll or zoom in.

I'd really dig this option, could be enabled/disabled by right clicking the track or item. It could also be added to track sections without items as part of the track background

It would have to be drawn on the track, not the item. Otherwise it would look weird when you have lots of split items.

That said, I don't see a huge need for this IMO.
