Research direction
Start by tracing how configured metrics are represented and displayed in the Dashboards product, focusing on the existing positional name and meta name described in the issue. The issue names no files or tests; done should mean a metric can receive a custom label such as "Paypal Webhook Count" and that label appears consistently where the metric is shown.
