It would be neat if you could implement the same feature but for components. When extruding and selecting "New component", it would be nice to rename the component right away.

I remember not adding the naming feature when using the "New component" button, as that dialog already has a name field.

But this is a new use case. I'll have a look (when time permits).

edit:
The current heuristic cannot determine if a component was created using the New Component dialog (which has a name field) or Extrude->Component.

Possibly, the add-in could watch to see if an extrude command was running (but maybe there are other commands as well) - or unconditionally ask for new components.

Or it could look for the name being a template name ("Component" in all languages).

Note, the name of the occurrence must be filtered (cannot be (directly) renamed):
