Naming convention of documents when viewing in VSCode

The MongoDB extension for VSCode has given me a really good development experience by simply using my DB from either local machine or from Atlas, without going out of the editor. But one thing we can have, as an improvement, is to give some sort of ability that the documents of a MongoDB collection can be named based on a field chosen when viewing it via extension. Currently, for sake of uniqueness, it uses _id as representation name, which may sometimes feel confusing while developing with MongoDB. I will really love to have something of sorts implemented in VS Code.
