To enhance debugging, it would be nice to use the APIs debug object interfaces to provide more meaningful information, such as object names. Internally, this could be done using an IDebugObject interface, that (when compiled in debug config) stores the name and provides an use method that sets the debug info.

• This tutorial shows how to do this in Vulkan.
• In DX12, this can be done using ID3D12Object::SetName.

Another feature would be debug markers, however, I am not quite sure how they work in DirectX.
