Friendly Field's Name in Tables/Widgets

[chalfling]

What?

Enable rename field's name text to better table visualization.

Original fields:

Renamed fields:

Or another example:
Original:

Changed:

Why?

I believe that this way the presentation of the data is simpler and clearer

Today I only can change "count()" field's name

upvote from me, would be heavely useful !
Field names are more often than not cryptic to dashboard users, and sometimes really long (I am looking at you, WinlogBeat ! :) ). Pipelines are a possibility to rename them, but having the flexibility to rename in widgets would be a huge plus.

I think I can build some workaround with javascript like this:

$("[data-widget-id='WIDGET-HASH'] table tr").children[0].firstChild.firstChild.innerHTML = "Common Name";
$("[data-widget-id='WIDGET-HASH'] table tr").children[1].firstChild.firstChild.innerHTML = "Group Name";
$("[data-widget-id='WIDGET-HASH'] table tr").children[2].firstChild.firstChild.innerHTML = "Involved User";

Can someone point where can I call my javascript to run?

Thank you!

Will anyone be assigned to this? That would be great! The current workaround is a tedious process of removing and renaming fields via a pipeline. In the case of something like WinlogBeat, to @H2Cyber's point, this would honestly be ridiculous to do.
