I would like to see the ability to right click on a shape and rename it (in the shape sidebar).  Currently the only way to rename one of your custom shapes is to: go to the shape library (in which there is no shape search feature), then find your library, and then find your shape and then right click it (can be long process if you have large shape libs , like i do).

It is nice that you can press M on the keyboard to bring up the shape library, however you still have to do the steps above.

A much better solution is we should be able to right click on any shape in the shape's sidebar and have the option to rename or better yet rename plus additional other shape features (such as edit shape or duplicate or move to different library).
