TL;DR: When you click the icon to rename something, highlight the existing name so you can start typing a new name.
Currently:
1st click on train station to open dialog.
2nd click on pencil icon to "Rename stop" and open Change name dialog.
3rd click to get cursor into text entry box so I can type the new name I want. Alternatively highlight and overwrite the text there.
Proposed:
When we open the Change name dialog the current text is already highlighted so that we can type right away. No 3rd click.
Argument:
If we click 'rename' we would likely have to stop running around the factory (e.g. W/S/A/D) to type our name anyway.
Thank you for developing this fun game with such solid programming!

FYI: right click focuses and clears most text boxes in the game.
