Nowhere in the pcbnew footprint properties dialog does it say the name (and 
source library) of the footprint whose properties are being displayed! This is 
a weird oversight. 

This little bit of info is useful! For example, my DRC check complained about 
“footprint C7 has malformed courtyard.” OK, I look at the footprint’s 
properties to see what it’s called (because who can remember) and it’s not in 
that dialog.

To be fair, when a footprint is selected, its relevant details are shown in the 
status bar on the bottom of the screen, and that includes the footprint name. 
But still …

This is with a current nightly build.
