Want the ability to customize the name of the worktrees that are created. I use Zed and it's confusing to understand what I'm working on without looking at the branch name.

Research direction
Start by locating the worktree creation flow and tracing how its current name is chosen from the branch. Determine where a user-facing customization option belongs and how the chosen name is represented. Done means newly created worktrees use the requested custom name and remain distinguishable in the Zed workflow.
