To make it easier to find them, I've also added a menu item in the Select 
menu ("list unnamed symbols") and a hotkey {s l u} for listing unnamed 
symbols on a sheet.
 
For consistency I've renamed the adjacent menu's hotkey, "list locked 
objects" from {s k} to {s l k}
 
 
The list is a clickable tree view with preview, so it should make it easy 
to find the unnamed symbols on a dense sheet. It also has a direct button 
for propedit, which may be even quicker for editing the name attribute.
