Most of the time, a field in a view will be called the same thing as the field it pulls from in the source table. Adding an automatic map feature based on Name would make using Map Custom View Fields a lot easier and more friendly.

Emily Wynkoop The ability to paste a custom script into one of these areas and auto-map parameters based on name would be incredible. It might get tricky when dealing with an advanced scripts, but I would think mapping source and destination fields in the custom view mapping utility could just re-use the same logic that name-based matching when mapping tables onto one another uses.
