Research direction
Start at the register_surface_mesh entry point named in the issue and inspect how repeated registrations use the name argument. Done means the default-name question has a consistent implemented answer, including defined behavior when the function is called repeatedly without a meaningful name.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
When using polyscope for a quick visualization I don't always have or care about a meaningful "name" for my mesh. Could there be a default?
If I understand correctly calling register_surface_mesh twice with the same name will overwrite the first call's data. So I guess there's a question whether a default would be default1, default2, etc. or just keep overwriting default. I kind of like overwriting default because avoiding that clearly gives the non-default name a sense of purpose.
