Because of the duplication of common database names accross different spaces,

- where spaces can be for example departments or teams,
- and the databases for example project, role, task, member, where they need their own fields or creator permissions thus cannot be unified in a single space,

it is useful to show the space name together with the database name at the top:

We will not do exactly that, but soon we will add a space Icon near database icon.

To be fair, it is not a good sign if you have the same db name in multiple spaces. Typically, items of the same basic type should live in the same db.  
If you’re not choosing to do this, it’s worth digging into why

The reason is that we’re still waiting for database level creator permissions, that would solve it. Until then, one space per team, with duplicate database names unfortunately.

This is in progress, I hope in ~2 months we will release it

Yes! Looking forward to this as I’m often hunting for the space of an entity. 😊
