Hi, We had a long discussion about this sometime back. We have already solved this problem by introducing the description tag into the Synapse configuration language. In the next major release the relevant UI changes will also be included in the ESB.

If you want to just disable parts of the configuration, that's a different problem. I think that is one of the items in the ESB road map (going in the lines of mediation debugger). Users should be able to just pick one or more mediators and disable them.
