Hmm... I'm not sure. If it is just a matter of the DAW lacking the functionality, there may be a way to manually rename the instance names of plug-ins. Here is something you can try, which may or may not work:

:idea: For a given edit file, open the file in a text editor and find/replace the text values (the text values will probably be enclosed between double quotes) of the plug-in instances you wish to rename.

:!: Be sure to make a backup copy of the edit file before doing any text editing; that way if you mess up badly, you will still have an unmodified copy to revert back to (and give it another go if you want).
