Bring back 2.79 marker functionality

Here's a little one that has been frustrating me recently. In 2.79 when you bound a camera to the marker it still displayed the name of the maker, but now it doesn't and just displays the camera name instead.

While I get why this is beneficial to some, I would still like to be able to see the original marker names, so having the option to switch back would be nice, or display one under the other or something.

Maybe display the additional data in a tooltyp and let the naming stay.

* @reikenberg * This would make jumping to a specific point in the timeline a bit harder as you would have to click it first to view it. If you have more than a dozen markers it wouldn't that solution wouldn't really work.

Definitely annoying to use at times.. Binding cameras will rename the marker.

Maybe instead add the camera name with an underscore to the named marker?

Example: markername_Camera

* @rodgerdaledavis * It's still kind of nice to have the camera name. That's why I wanted to include my own thoughts.

* @rodgerdaledavis * Agree. With the way it is now, there is definitely enough vertical room for both of them to be displayed on top of each other
