Description

What is the feature you'd like to have?
Let's say I am one of my layouts. And I have several more. When I click Window > Layout I cannot figure out which layout I am now! Best solution is like in view > linear, adding a small tick before my user defined layout. So that a user simply understands which layout he/she is using.

Is your feature request related to a problem?
No.

Are any alternative solutions acceptable?
No.

Additional Information:
In Windows > layout menu, user defined layouts come after a split line. I thing we should "also" have a "Default" string with a "tick", as a default value. With pictures it is more easy to explain:

Already we use this:
