The color names on some boards are thematic, humorous, or otherwise interesting. I would like to be able to see each player's color name in the table below the map while playing instead of just on the join page. This could be a designer option to not busy up maps that have standard color names.
Example boards that would benefit:

http://www.wargear.net/boards/view/Vertigo
http://www.wargear.net/boards/view/War+of+the+Ring

+1.
It works for team names right now I think - and that is good. (and if I'm wrong about teams names, you should be able to see those too...)
I believe you can see the designer assigned team names except during tournaments where you see the player assigned team names.
