Description
The getCurrentSource() method gives info on the current OBS scene, but is there any way to get the name in OBS of the BrowserSource itself? Not the <title> or the url of the html file but the name it has been given in the Sources listing.

Research direction
Start by tracing the getCurrentSource() method and how the BrowserSource communicates with OBS Studio. Determine whether the source name from OBS's Sources listing is available at that boundary; done means the method or API can expose that name distinctly from the HTML title and URL, with the relevant behavior verified.
