This has bugged me for AGES. +100

This also applies to all sorts of other UI elements..

eg Adding a security group rule usually has me thinking "humm ... which security group did I select again?" ;)

I *think* this is a duplicate, but I can't find the ticket currently. Agreed. This could probably be expanded to *all* confirmation dialogs.

Adding this feature and keeping scalability is not a simple thing.

As modals are written in JS, obtaining information about objects is more difficult because it depends on the way that information is displayed. This is, ordering and/or naming matters.

Maybe and standard should be established to simplify this kind of things.

    Confirmation dialogs lists selected objects name

    Notifies the user the name of the objects
    the operation is going to affect.

    Volume deletion, images deletion and
    instances termination are some of the operations
    that will display this information in
    confirmation dialog.

    Fallback mode: tables with no field containing
    'Name' string won't list selected objects.
