Sync View Names with Table Names (Auto-Rename Root Views)

Context: When a view is auto-generated in AppSheet (e.g., upon adding a new table to the data model), the system assigns the root view name based on the original table name.

Problem: If the table name is changed later, the root name of the auto-generated view does not update accordingly. This creates inconsistencies, confusion, and can lead to navigation errors—especially in apps with many tables.

Proposal: Introduce an option that allows auto-generated views (those created automatically by the system when a table is added) to dynamically sync their names with the name of the underlying table—as long as no custom view name has been assigned.

Reduces human error and maintenance friction. Makes app development more intuitive, especially in complex builds.
