[New-bugs-announce] [issue34270] Add names to asyncio tasks

[Alex Grönholm]

New submission from Alex Grönholm <alex.gronholm+python at nextday.fi>:

Having names on tasks helps tremendously when something goes wrong in a complex asyncio application. Threads have names and even trio has the ability to name its tasks. This would also greatly benefit PyCharm's concurrency visualization: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/thread-concurrency-visualization.html#asyncio
